hiv?
hello,
i had one encounter with a sex worker who i believe recently was diagnosed as positive with hiv. she had a noticible rash around her mouth and i had a small cut on my penis. She gave me fellatio unprotected, and we had brief vaginal sex with a condom. i did not ejaculate in her mouth. i felt a slight painful sensation 2 hrs after the encounter. I began to get worried, and 3 days later i noticed two blisters on my penis. i was then tested for herpes (blood, culture) , gon.., chyl..., and syphillis and they all came back negative. they put me on 7 days of valtrex just in case. After two weeks or so the blisters on my penis slowly turned into a red rash on my penis head that resembles contact darmatits, and this rash is still present after 18 days. the rash is on the head of my penis. i went to a dr. again yesterday, and he thought my spleen may be enlarged but he was not 100% because i am very skinny and muscular. So, he wanted me to come back next week for a sonogram of my liver. I have no other noticeable symptons at this time( again, 18 days since contact)
i have been very anxious since my encounter with the sex worker.
thoughts for probability of HIV? thank you

hi, thanks for the response. i have heard that there are a few reported cases of transmission via oral. and remember she may have been newly infected, had a face rash(which might have bleed from inside gums) and i had a small cut on my penis head...
do you know if you can get infected with both hpv and hiv at the same time? the genital blisters that appeared on day 3 have to be from the encounter with her.
thanks again, ek
