Oraquick 5 Weeks

I had enounter with a CSW 4.5 weeks ago. I did not have intercourse with her but we did partake in mutual masterbation. I never touched her; however, she did touch herself and then me. She did put a condom on me but I am worried she had vaginal fluids on her hand before she did it. I can't stop worrying about it. 1.5 weeks ago at the 3 week mark I had back pain and back of my knee pain and aching and I was also very tired for about two days. The pain has somewhat gone away but now I have some in my upper chest arm pit area. I don't feel any swollen lymph nodes and no fever. I took an Oraquick at the 3 week and recently 4 week mark. Both were negative. Is this a good indication of my status or am not out of the woods yet? I have read multiple pages saying that Advanced Oraquick is within 2 days of a Rapid Gen 3 Blood test now which usually detects at 3 weeks. However if my symptoms at week 3 were ARS would it have tested positive at week 4?  Please help, I can't keep my mind off of it.

Doesn't matter.  You didn't have a risk and don't need to test.

HIV is ONLY transmitted by:
1) Having unprotected (no condom) penetrative anal or vaginal sex, OR
2) Sharing IV drug equipment with other IV drug users.
It’s really as simple as that.  HIV can also be passed from an infected mother to an unborn child, or to a newborn through breastfeeding.

I was not aware Oraquick developed a product as sensitive as you said.
Taking this from your post how effective it is, a 4 week negative is encouraging.
However, if she has hiv, ( chances are she doesn't) transmission female to male is not easy even if you penetrated her. Still don't see a risk.

What you describe isn't a risk for HIV and doesn't warrant testing.

I am worried because I think she may have rubbed on my penis with her bare vagina. I really can't remember. I do know I was never actually inside of her though and no oral sex took place. Do you think my test would be conclusive as of now?
