My Exposure Risks?
Hi All,
I'm a gay man. On Jun 15, I met a man online and had protected anal sex. On Jun 17, I had unprotected oral with another man with no cum inside mouth (but had a canker sore below my tongue). Starting on Jun 23, I started getting upset stomach and very loose to watery stool. I'm wondering if this is ARS? I have read online that diarrhea can be a first sign of the body trying to fight off the virus....
I have been eating right (Banana, Rice, Apples Sauce.... etc diet), but the diarrhea hasn't gone away as of today (Jun 27). I'm a bit worried. Any suggestions on my potential exposure?
When is the earlier that I can get tested?
Thanks so much!
