HIV Risk

Hi

Sounds like a strange question but 6 weeks ago a friend and i bumped into two romanian escorts in a bar whilst on a night out they invited us back to party were we continued to drink and between the hours of 5am and 6am when i called a cab i have very little memory of what happened. nothing happened before this time. I found what looked like 3 pimples on my inner elbow a few days later and have since been terrified of hiv . if i had taken heroin whilist drunk ( which i have never done previously ) would i know.

i got a chest infection 10 days later which i took anti biotics for and have had a heat rash/spots appear on my upper body but then go after ten mins

am i been paranoid or does this appear to be a risk ?

thanks

pimples on your elbow and a heat rash (or any rash that comes and goes) are not HIV symptoms.

No one knows what happened that night.  However, one would think that if you injected heroin, you'd have needle tracks on your arm that would be obvious.  This is highly unlikely to have happened, but if you're concerned, take a DUO test after 28 days.
