Testing for HIV & 4-5 week test

[Overlystressed]

1st Question:

I just got tested (free) on Monday at a Deparment of Health anonymous testing.  They took blood from my arm and i would need to call in next week Wednesday for the results.  Ive read from the post that there are many different kinds of tests.

Could someone tell me which test i took and how reliable it is.  

2nd Question (Posted Last Week):

I got tested 5 weeks after receiving uprotected oral sex from hostess bar girl and 4 weeks after sucking breasts (assuming had breast milk) from Vegas stripper who gave birth 8 weeks prior (i had dry lips with cracks that felt like cold sores).

Im still stressing out after reading other website forums regarding the breast milk issue.  Here they say no risk but at "The Body" forum they say there are risks.

Stressing out big time.  If this is negative am i home free or do i need to get another test?  I know i should have waited to at least 6 weeks but couldnt wait.  What is my risk with the breast incident in relation to oral sex?  Since ive read on websites breast milk is worse than vaginal fluid.  So does that mean what i did with the breast milk is worse than giving oral sex to a woman with sores in or on my mouth?

Teak, worried, ECN, and others, would appreciate your responses again.  Im killing myself and taking years off my like with all the stress.  Thanks!

I agree with your comment. I had my experience in India and it was protected vaginal but unprotected cunnilingus. I had a standard blood test after 21 days in Canada and it was negative. No symptoms for me but obviously I am worried. I am planning to do a 7 week blood test to be sure about it or atleast 98% sure about it (according to Dr. HHH and Dr. Hook who area world renonwed persons in STD research). In the whole world 99.35% people are not HIV infected and for India the % of HIV infected people are .35% considering the toal population of 1.1 billion. It's difficult to say if the message parlour girl was infected or not, although they say that they don't do sex without condom and no anal sex is allowed. In addition, they do the blood tests for HIV every month.

Cunnilingus is not risk, the CDC doesnt even have and stimated risk for it, try to move on

Thank you for the well wishing note. I went to CDC clinic, they said that cunnilingus without protection is a low risk activity, however they don't have any risk estimate for that. Few HIV infected cases in the world are believed to be due to cunnilingus. However, I agree that in most of the time when people engaged in cunnilingus they also involved in various other sexual activities. Therefore it's extremely difficult to measure the actual risk of cunnilingus. I think the risk is around 1 per 10000/20000 episode.

No thats the risk for receptive-insertive penile oral sex, and thats even inflaited, and the cases believed due to cunnilingus are so rare and have some doubt over it, You shouldnt even been worried at all,

My stress is going out of control now.  I have been sick for almost 4 weeks now.  Still have thick yellow mucus all day.  Doctor gave me Allegra D and has not done much at all.  Now my wife (started yesterday) has fever, sore throat, body aches all over, and felling just exhausted.  She never felt like this before.

Just to recap my issue:

I got tested on 5/12/08 after receiving uprotected oral sex from hostess bar girl on 4/4/08 and after sucking breasts (assuming had breast milk) from Vegas stripper who gave birth 8 weeks prior (i had dry lips with cracks that felt like cold sores) on 4/12/08.  Test results to be ready on 5/21/08.

Now the stress has been elevated to unbearable.  I didnt think what i did was risky but with all the symptoms i hope i didnt ruin my wifes life.  I aint never doing this shet again.  

Does anyone change their opinion on my risk about being infected?  Honest opinion please.  Im freaking out!!!!

No I havent change my opinion, but if you feel that bad, dont wait until the 21 go now or tomorrow and get a rapid test it only takes 20 min, and if your unprotecetd oral was on the 4/4 from then to tomorrow would be excatly 6 weeks, with that you can call it done, since oral sex isnt a even a low risk, is a lot lower than extremly low risk,

The symptoms your or from your wife are meaninless.

Good luck
