What is my overall risk of acquire HIV?
Hello,
I am Francisco. I write you because I have inquiries about risks of transmission of HIV. Three weeks ago, I had receptive and protected anal sex ( we used condom which did not break) with a guy whom has HIV (I realized of that the next morning of the intercourse). Also, I did fellatio to him (without condom), but there were not ejaculation, and when we were kissing ( eating a chocolate), he did a cut in his mouth lip. I did not have any cut in my oral mucosa, but I was receiving treatment for peptic ulcers because of Helicobacter Pylori infection. He was diagnosed by June 20th, 2011 ( when his viral load was 76,500 copies/ml). Since that time, he is receiving HAART with lamivudine-zidovudine-efavirenz twice daily, but he told me that there are some days ( at maximun 3) that he does not take the pills, but most days of the month he is adhering to the treatment. His current viral load is 39,000 copies/ml.
When I realized of him diagnosis, I went to a doctor who gave me profilaxis about 18 hours post-exposure with lamivudine-zidovudine. At 24 hours post-exposure, I received Efavirenz, but at 36 hours post-exposure my regimen was changed with ritonavir-lopinavir. My question is : What is my overall risk of acquiring HIV, taking in consideration all that I have described above?.
Thank you very much in advance.
Sincerely,
Francisco

I responded to the question before i even read your answer.Maybe you type faster then i do.
your risk is zero because many Hiv experts consider oral sex a zero risk activity for Hiv infection and your anal intercourse was protected.You never required nPEP and you don't need testing.
