oral and vaginal sex
I had unprotected sex 15 weeks ago with a woman and 2 weeks later i had oral cunninglus with another woman. Ive had diarrhea for about 3 months with stomach pain, i use to nave nausaue with it, but it has gone away. Ive been going to the doctor for the past 2 months taking test. He took stool samples, blood test, ct scan and a colonoscopy and found nothing. When i eat i get cramps as soon as the food goes to my stomach. Im always gassy now. and cant get rid of this cold.I never had this before. I also had my last hiv test done . It would make it 15 weeks for the vaginal sex and at 13 weeks for the oral.. it was neg. Do you think i should continue to go get tested for hiv, im thinking about taking it again at 16 weeks?

Even if a woman has HIV, the chance of transmission from female to male is once for every 2,000 episodes of unprotected vaginal sex. And HIV is rare in women in the US, so your risk was even lower. If you want to call that "high risk", it's fine with me. I don't.
How high your risk was is completely irrelevant anyway. Even if your exposure was the highest risk imaginable, the negative test result shows you didn't catch it.

You don't have HIV. The risk of HIV in the circumstances you describe is almost zero; your symptoms do not particularly suggest HIV; and most important, the negative antibody test result at 13 weeks proves 100% you don't have HIV. There is no need for further HIV testing. Follow your own health care provider's advice to learn the cause of your problem and what to do about it. But put HIV out of your mind. It's something else.

Doc, the women i was with was african american, does that change anything.

i think you are stressed out and that along with anxiety will cause these things to happen trust me ive been there Dr HHH is the man he would not lie to you or stir you in the wrong direction post over in the hiv prevention forum we can talk more there the DR doesnt like it in this forum
Well im learning alot about Hiv and will be practicing safe sex from now on. With the diarrhea, weight loss and swollen lymp nodes happening to me all of a sudden just put me over the edge a bit. Maybe this was a warning for me.
i thought vaginal sex was high risk?
