Lymph Nodes

With HIV it is usually all the lymph nodes that swell up and not just the one?

Why do you say not including the groin (do the groin ones not normally swell )?  Or do you mean the groin AND 2 other places ?

Its okay to answer someone questions, if you have the correct answers. The last thing we need here is false info going out. there is enough of that on the web.

Yeah but after reading about the possibility of all condoms not preventing HIV I got a bit worried. I let the girl, who was an escort, use a condom that she brought and she put it on for me. I'm pretty sure the condom was intact when I threw it away. Not sure that the escort even had an orgasim anyway, that would limit my risk even further wouldn't it? Had alot of symptoms so may test again just to relieve this anxiety I have.

It's not a low risk, it is a NO RISK. Your lymph nodes if they are swollen at all is not because of HIV. See a doctor if you have a concern.

you did not have even a low risk, no one has gotten hiv from getting a blow job and you had protected sex, no need to test at all
