Very very afraid- Please help me

[kingkhan01]

Hi,
Two weeks back, i met a csw in RLD and amsterdam and she masturbated me with my condom on. No exchange of fluids, no kisses and i just played with her breasts and buttocks. but in the past three days or so i have been having a cold with sneezing and running nose at times (not continuously). also today morning i felt some pain on my left hand (about 2 inches away from the armpit). i touched the paining area, but i dont feel any swollen part but its just paining. also i am feeling some pain near my left pelvic bone (not near the groin) but on the outer side (say near the pant pocket entry area). also few days back i felt a sever neck pain (back part of the neck). but i think it was more due to my way of sleeping as i dont have it anymore. i am very very afraid if i am getting infected. can someone please analyse the above mentioned details and guide me out. please i am very afraid.

Thanks a lot for the encouraging words weez.

[kingkhan01]

yeah weez but on the other hand, i have been experiencing sudden pain in my hands, legs which also brings in the tiredness. i read these are symptoms of HIV as well in one of the websites. this is making me worried abt this a lot. can u please help me with correct information on this?

[kingkhan01]

Hi Teak, is body pain especially on the hands and legs is something to be worried about in connection to HIV symptoms?

[kingkhan01]

Thanks a lot teak for all the information and advice.

[Teak]

Like I said previous. If you have a concern see your doctor. It has nothing to do with HIV.

[kingkhan01]

I have a body ache as well today. all these are making me go really crazy. its putting the question "why now"? to me. is this something really weird and serious?

Primary Care Physican. Not to be confused with Pneumocystis carinii Pneumonia an OI with people that have CD4 count below 200.

Hi Teak, valuable information. also whats PCP? sorry i dont know this terminology.  also how many days do the lymph nodestake to get swollen. is there a first symptom that would indicate that they are in the process of getting swollen?

[Teak]

You should see your PCP for your symptoms because they are unrelated to HIV. Lymph nodes cannot be usually seen unless you have abnormal enlarged lymph nodes they have to be palpated by a physician to diagnose swollen lymph nodes. Another plus for you besides not having a risk,  is that swollen lymph nodes with HIV do NOT cause pain.

[kingkhan01]

Teak, Just to be complete. Should i go for a check incase if i encounter any further symptoms like, fever, groin pain? also can u tell me, if the lymph nodes get swollen can they be seen clearly ? also incase of HIV infection, so the lymph nodes at neck, groin and armpit get swollen at the same or they can also happen at different times?

[Teak]

You didn't have a risk of contracting anything.

[kingkhan01]

Teak, what is the worst case possibility of contracting HIV in the above mentioned situation. i am going mad with this. also let me know, if there is a possibility of someother STD with similar symptoms?

[Teak]

Saliva is not infectious.

[kingkhan01]

hi teak, but these symptoms are making me afraid, as they are occuring all of a sudden without me getting hurt or anything like that. thats what is making me worry. my mind has started thinking like, what if a saliva drop of the csw has gone into my mouth my mistake while talking since we didnt even kiss... also these things happening after two weeks my visit to that place is making me get really worried. please advise

[Teak]

You were never at risk of contracting HIV.
