Is this possibly HIV or something Else?
Hello, I am 23 years old and about 4 months ago i received oral sex from a woman who someone told me later to be a hooker. For the past few days I have had Diarrhea. I woke up with a skin rash on my forearm two days ago that lasted about fifteen minutes that kinda resembled Hives( reddish area, small white bumps). Might be from my sisters cat.. and for the past two days have had a semi sore throat and yesterday had awful muscle aches, shivers, and a mild fever up until i took medicine and it helped most of it yesterday. Today i woke up with minimal muscle ache, but have a sore throat and a minor cough. I know people say you dont get HIV from oral sex, but i dont know if there is a small risk involved and if anyone could help me out it would really be appreciated because im really freaking out about any little thing i think is different about me.
I really do appreciate any input anyone has. I am fairly un educated in STD transmition. Im probably still going to get tested for a peace of mind stand point. Its really been driving me crazy. I've read online that its possible oraly so i wanted a second opinion on the matter. Thanks
Read into what the experts say aout oral sex. They all will tell you no HIV risk. So HIV is not a concern. The only real concern you might have is other STDs. You will have to post questions about that in the STD fourm. For good advise.
I guess i might just have a bad cold. The only STD i found that kinda relates to what's going on is HIV. Thanks again for the info. It really helped.
