Mutual Masturbation and HIV like symptoms
Three weeks ago I met another guy online. He said that he had no diseases and was HIV negative so we met up and masturbated each other. I climaxed, but he did not (I don't even believe that he even had precum). This encounter took about five minutes and then we went our separate ways. I had shaved my genital area two nights before (although I saw no open cuts or sores). Days later, I noticed that I had a small cut on my finger (but I believe that I received that cut days after the meeting but I am not totally sure). Since then I have experienced weakness, nausea, fatigue, muscle and joint pains, weight loss, I have something white on my tongue, have had difficulty concentrating, mental fog, and a sore throat. Is it possible or documented to have received HIV through mutual masturbation? with a cut on the finger? I tested negative at 20 days with a P24 Antigen-Antibody duo test and I will retest in a week. This will be a discussion on the topic for the community.
You aren't experiencing ARS, you never had an exposure. See your doctor if you are feeling ill HIV is not a concern.
I have still been experiencing severe ARS symptoms for 7 weeks now. Is it possible that I could have contracted HIV from this exposure?
