Hi,
I have been reading a lot of posts on this site and have found it to be quite helpful. I had unprotected insertive anal sex with a man about 10 days ago. He said he was fee of any STDs. I am circumcised, and the anal sex only lasted about 5 minutes, and I did ejaculate inside of him. Now, I regret this act and am worried about HIV.
I am very paranoid and have been known to reseach illnesses on the internet and come up with all of the symptoms. Lately, I have had a sore in my mouth, as well as a sore throat and headache. However, I also have nasal and chest congestion and hope this is associated with that, and not HIV. I also have noticed peeling skin on my hands, but think that this was present before the sex, because I do use hand sanatizer a lot. I have not been running a fever, and my glands are not swollen. My tongue has been white, but gets better when I brush it and use mouthwash. I have had some diarrhea but feel that it is because of my nerves. I have noticed a red rash on my neck, but it feels hot and is pink in color, I have very sensitive skin and feel like this is from shaving and feels lke a heat rash, or a flush because it comes and goes. I plan on getting tested at 6 weeks, and hope to see negative results. I guess I am just trying to see what my risk is, and maybe get some assurance. This has been my only sexual partner, and I do not know for sure that he was infected, but again I am very paranoid. I know the only sure way to tell for sure is to get tested, and I definitely plan to, but was hoping for some support until then, as it seems like a long ways away. I really appreciate this site,and have definitely learned my lesson.
