Received oral sex from a male with unknown HIV status...

A few days ago I (stupidly) agreed to receive oral sex, unprotected, from a male (I am male too) I don't know at all, and had unknown HIV status.
I was wondering what the chances were of my contracting HIV in case he was positive, through oral sex (saliva, I suppose), as I don't think there were any abbrasions/cuts on my penis or in his mouth (that is highly unsure).
I will get tested, but since the incubation period is 3-6 months, I'd like some premonitions to help ease my mind.
Any thoughts?

I told you, you have no good reason to be concerned about HIV, even if your partner was HIV+. Now you can be as calm as you please, I can't help you with emotional problems, sorry....

Eh, thanks, I read some of the posts and realized my concern had been addressed many times over already... but with this kind of stuff, I don't think people can really be expected to be too calm...

Receiving a blowjob carries negligible risk for HIV, relax
