Help doctors posible HIV case
Hello doctors, I’m writing hoping to get some answers, I’m a female 29 years old from Dominican Republic, I had a sex encounter on 03/21/19 with a white Canadian guy, the first night was ok and we used condom then the next day in the morning before penetration occurred he rubbed his penis on my vagina I believe for a minute or so afterwards he put on the condom and penetrated me Now the ISSUE is I realized I got a cut on the entrance of my vagina (I realized because it hurt me probably from the night before) what is the risk level here considering he could have had pre *** at that moment he was rubbing ? My doc advise me to wait 3 months for the test but I’m DYING I’m not sleeping well! I’m having tingling/ itching sensation on my skin and had headache for 3 days that when away when I took sinus medicine.

There are no doctors here. This is a moderated HIV prevention forum.
You never possessed any risk from what you have mentioned.
1. Condom protected sex is safe sex.
2. Even if we 'assume' your partner was HIV positive, if some infected fluid made contact with a wound in your body, there can be no risk attributed to this, HIV can't infect out of the body. Also, practically, for some one to get infected in that fashion, a huge gapping wound exposing nerves is necessary and that has to come in contact with a large amount of infected fluid.
You don't need to test. You need not worry about HIV.

Thank you! I’m having a hard time I’m getting this tingling sensations like needles all over the body and found online this could be hiv affecting the nerves/nerve?
We have already established that you didn't posses any risk from your event. Your symptoms are psychosomatic and possibly due to reading excessive on the internet.
If you had HIV related peripheral neuropathy, you would have been in an intensive care of a hospital and not typing here on an online forum, quit reading much about HIV online and accept that you didn't posses any risk from your incident.
Please see a therapist if you are unable to think logically. You don't have an HIV concern.
