Very confused and scared

hi all

I have been doing the rounds on the internet about early symptoms and have scared myself to death. I have always had protected intercourse with no accidents. But I have in the past have had oral sex without protection. In ten years only had semen in my mouth four times and not within the last years or so. I have recently felt unwell over the last three/four weeks dull headaches,diarrihia not runny but not formed, feeling very tired, hot flushes not never any fever my temp being normally 35.6 around that. I have been to the GP who has prescribed me Erythmicin 250mg three times a day for the next ten days and have taken a stool sample. I am usually very healthy and gold etc last no more than a few days so this is totally out of character for me.
The reason for my worry is that four weeks ago i had an encounter with a pos guy we did not have anal sex or oral but he did ejactulate over my lower body. Which I washed off straight away. I know that this is a no exsistant risk, but I am worried that the past oral incounters have provided a risk for me.

My confusion and the stress it has caused is getting mixed info about oral sex and should I really be concerned and that I have just got a horrible GI infection.

many thanks for your replies they will help me through this,

I can not find where you have had a risk for HIV. Protected sex is no risk. Oral sex is not a risk. Having a guy ejaculate on you is not a risk. I do advise on testing every 6 months to 1 year if not in a committed relationship. But also both parties should test once when in a committed relationship 3 months after last possible exposure.
