Transmission rate for one hetero f-to-m act?

For peace of mind, any and all feedback appreciated. Quick facts:

- On Jan 22 in Beijing I took an office girl from a club home.
- Condom slipped off, I was inside her raw for 5-10 seconds before pulling out and ejaculating
- Didn't have the girl's number after she left, though I asked her if she was clean (never "rawed" anyone before) and she got very offended and said she had no idea because she was never tested. ahh
- Had a massive panic attack, waited four weeks and got tested for non-HIV stds. All clear.
- I am circumcised. According to this link http://www.avert.org/circumcision-hiv.htm, it can make a significant difference?
- Zero symptoms.
- Starting to panic again, I saw the research for one-time act transmission on Wikipedia is low (less than 0.1%), but I still feel so incredibly nervous (and goddamned stupid) about this.

Thank you.

Sound advice. Thank you again. I promise to update this thread after my 3 month test. One way or the other, so that others after me in a similar circumstance can have a frame of reference. Fingers crossed.

Well, unfortunately there really isn't any way to completely reassure you as you DID have a risk.  In comparison, there are acts that are much riskier, that is why I said your risk isn't extraordinarily high.

Keep yourself busy and don't spend a lot of time searching the web as it will only increase your anxiety.

Thank you for your response. "Not extroadinarily high" isn't exactly reassuring with regards to anxiety, but I guess appropriate given the reality of the situation. This is going to be an excruciating two month wait.

You had a risk.  We don't get into discussing odds, odds are for the Casino.  Overall, your exposure was not extraorinarily high due to the brevity of the insertive sex without a condom.  Stillm a risk is a risk.

You can obtain your conclusive HIV test results at 3 months post expsoure.
