new symptoms and some advice please

Hello, I am a 24 years old male and frequetly visited a massage parlor recently. The sex workers in that massage parlor provide some erotic sexual services to me. I ejaculated several times. But I never have penetration sex or oral sex with these prostitutes. Am I at risk of contracting HIV??  Do I need a test?

I developped several rashes on my arms and body this week and have a sore throat from yesterday. Does it have something to do with HIV ???  I am soooo scared now and please help me with your advice.  Thank you very much!

hiv is transmitted through...
unprotected vaginal / anal intercourse
sharing iv drug works
mother to child

UNTIL you can accept "how" hiv is transmitted...you might want to stay away from prostitutes so that your OCD wont be out of control.

when you have one of the above exposures...THEN you have put yourself at risk ! ! !

so No penetration sex or oral sex = No risk ???    no matter what else we did sexually?

one time, she sits on top of me. she wears underwear and stockings , I wear underwear. we rub each other's genital area until I ejaculate.(no penetration)   When I am going to ejaculate, Her body left my body.  Is this a potential risk for HIV ?  

and if I take a test after I have developed some symptoms , does it mean that the HIV antibody can be detected now and don't have to wait for 3 month window period ?  right?

Thanks!
