Chances of hiv infection after unprotected sex

Hi, I am a 26 year old male, I had unprotected anal sex with a sex worker 6 weeks back. And 12 days after exposure I got tonsillitis, I went to the doctor and she prescribed antibiotics, it came down in a week. In the mean time my lymph node was swollen, i had fever, night sweats, i feel my left part of stomach is a  bit swollen. I took a hiv antibody test at 4 weeks after exposure and it came to be negative. I told my doctor about the possible exposure but she asked me to wait for 12 weeks. What are the chances that I have hiv? and do you suggest any test to confirm hiv infection earlier? I read that early diagnosis could help in treatment.

Hello everyone.

I had protected sex recently with a hooker but was not able to control myself and had oral sex with her (not sure if lasted a minute or more but not more than 2 minutes). During the session I'm not sure if I had sores/cuts in my mouth but previously before the incident one my tooth sometimes gets bleed especially if I used toothpick to clean it. Few hours later I checked my mouth and found a reddish spot below my tongue though I can't see any cut in there.

Thing is I don't know if this girl is clean but I heard that they regularly go for medical check-up every 6 months. The good side is the girl refused to be kissed and strict to follow using condom which lessens my worry that perhaps she's clean.

Now I'm anxious if I contracted any STD or not but wanna know the chances of getting through that brief incident.

Would appreciate any advice from anyone on this matter.
Thanks and more power.

NOW START RESEARCHING  "CYBERCHONDRIAC"


once youve done that read this

One other thing is there is far to much pressure put on the gay world. its not fair how everyone else can relax (white males) but black people (100x gay people) if you dont believe me read our stuff when you read your own.. are told were so high risk we might aswell admit ourselfs now. Look gay people dont let it get you down we are statisticly more at risk but think about this....

if you asked your mum and dad if they had ever had a hiv test what do you think they would say?, furthermore as an escort 90 percent of my clients have wifes, most gay people have at least tried it with a girl (i had a 2 year bb relationship with a girl), less than 40% of young gay people really admit there gay (im being generous) 20% of bi people claim there gay, but then how many percent of bi people admit ther gay? ive slept with enough straight people in my life who are completley straight .....if you get were im going with this let me further ellaborate...

we live in a multi cultural world now. look at england!!! i for one always fall for black men. believe it or not mix us all together and were all gona ***** hence why you can no longer say black people are more at risk cuz were just not seregated like we were 100s of years ago. ok so then think about a female (becky) (white) is married to jeffery (black) who is an in the closet gay and pays men for sex on a regular basis. (whos more at risk?)

I recently met a woman I was dating about 2 weeks ago.  We were getting ready to be intimately involved last night and while we were kissing I had an erection and my penis went inside her vagina while I was on top kissing for about 3-4 seconds and I pushed her away.  Am I in danger for hiv
