hiv through oral

hi, i know people ask these questions these questions all the time but i just whant you to answer my case. I had un protected oral sex with a guy less than 3 days ago, i remember brushing my teeth but my gums didnt bleed, i didnt have any open cuts in my mouth either. He told me had been with 3 previous guys but had used a condom each time. I dont know whether to trust him though. Do you think it is necesary for me to have a hiv test. i have beeeeen SOOOOO nervous since the incident , but feel equally nervous to have a test.

what should i do?

I'm not talking about the "Am I Infected" forum there which is not very good.  I'm talking about the "Living with" forum for the HIV+ people.

Ok…..please let me say sth too….I perfectly understand inadepression. I have swallone nodes everywhere and I am dieing of fear first of all. I could not find the 4categ Teak sais seroconvert after 3months and I asked doctors,who also say 6months. But, as inadepression, I also realize I can’t help the fear….weather I have HIV or not, I also need mental help for not knowing the reason all symptoms happened and negative result. I’ve been to the doc yesterday and he told me those could be for other causes, but he couldn’t say anything till 6months. I do not have enough money for the PCR…so I have to stay alive for 1,5months not knowing anything……I will die of fear before I would of HIV

Oh please.  There are many such people on aidsmeds.  The threads on oral sex are both funny and sad at the same time.

- You don't get HIV through oral sex
- But I did
- No, you didn't.  Have you read the Spanish study?
and so on

By the way, none of the better aidsmeds people say that oral is no risk.  I have definitely seen Ann acknowledge that it is a risk.  Everybody knows that it is a risk.
