Worried - late sero

Hi, doc!  Sorry to bother you again, but I'm really worried.  I know that it is said that oral sex with a woman is little to no risk, but I have my doubts.  It was my only exposure in a long time.  Tested negative at 9 weeks and 12 1/2 weeks.  PCR RNA and PCR DNA undetectable at 6 weeks.  PCR RNA undetectable at 9 weeks. Should my doctor used a PCR DNA at 9 weeks? These tests give me much hope, but my symptoms persist 13 and 1/2 weeks after possible exposure.  White tongue that stings at times.  Very sore, heavy feeling in neck.  Prickley/slight itchy feeling on skin.  Red bumps appearing on my upper legs (this one really scares me).   I ran on Saturday and my lower legs felt extremely heavy.  There is a white substance where my gums meet my lower middle teeth (unless it is the gumb that is white).  Not having the flu symptoms 2 to 4 weeks after possible infection, would that delay the onset of antibodies.  How you one tell when someone turns positive after infection on one who does not have symptoms?  I need some help!!

Thanks, but I have difficulty believing oral sex is no risk.  My symptoms tell me something very different.

your question did not make it to the expert forum.

your negative test at 12 1/2 weeks PROVES...without a shadow of doubt...that you do not have hiv...no way...no how.

this...coupled with the fact that you were never at risk...should alleviate all doubt.

time to move on.
