What are my chances?
I am pretty worried right now. Earlier today I went to an orgy event where many of the males were practising bareback sex. I performed oral sex on one guy while he was bottoming bareback for somw other guy (read: 99% chance of him being positive). And lately I've been having many oral complications: wisdome teeth swelling, canker sores and my lower front gums bleed very VERY easily: when I'm eating a bannana, there is blood on the banna where I took the bite where my lower teeth chewed at. Simply pressing on my gums makes them bleed. I was also able to taste his precum but he did not ejaculate in my mouth. After I pulled away I went into the restroom where I washed my mouth out, and some of the water ended up going into my nasal cavity. My mouth also became sort of dry from washing it out with water. What are my chances of havinh contraced hiv? Also, I am heterozygous for the CCR5 delta32 mutation.

They are not ARS symptoms and you have already been told more than once now that you had no risk--it's time to let this go.
Thank you for your answer jargon,
I have another question. How soon after HIV infection do lymph nodes swell? I Ask because today I discovered a swollen lymph node in my armpit area which is swollen but not painful. I find this odd because my armpit lymph nodes have never swollen in my life. It is been five days since the exposure. I know you will say that I had a no risk situation so thus my swollen lymph node is not due to HIV. But I need this answer for my own knowledge and anxiety relief. Sorry to take your time.

The nasal cavity, like the oral cavity, is not a route of transmission. You have nothing to worry about.
Sorry to bug, but I have been stressing out over this same situation for factors that I ommited in my original post:
1. I deepthroated the hiv+ man with his precum coverd penis hitting the back of my throat;
2. When I went to the restroom to wash out my mouth, some of the water went up my nose( like soda does when you laugh while drinking it)
The second point is the one i am most worries about Water with hiv infected precum went up my nasal cavity, it would appear. And I have not been able to find any other situations like this on the interner. right now I have a slightly stuffed nose. Please advise, I am really anxious at this point :/
