Possible HIV Infection?
I'm a young gay male who recently performed fellatio on two different men. In both encounters, the men stated they had no infections/diseases, and the fellatio lasted only a minute or so without ejaculation. However, I came down with a sore throat, slight fever, and general malaise a few days after the last exposure. My primary care physician diagnosed that I have tonsilitis and prescribed a common antibiotic which seems to be working i.e. my symptoms are much improved after day 2 of a 5-day treatment regimen.
My question is: Could this still have been ARS, and should I test for HIV? I always use condoms for anal sex, and I always make a point to ask partners of their status. My last HIV test was in early March, and it came back negative for HIV.
