Thaks for the info, is a five week period good to wait to get tested for piece of mind. Calling the AIDS Hotline they make you feel that there was an real chance of getting it, but I understand they are giving the safe answer. Its amazing what fear and regret can do to a person.
thanks for your detailed express
I guess I am worried because some of the things u read get u scared on the internet and the Nat Aids Hotline said that nobody can know for sure if blood was present and blood from the mouth can go directly into the penis. When I asked how much blood was needed to get infected they did not know. I am going to wait three weeks and get tested. The crazy thing is, its easier to get other STD's from oral, but I seem to be only worried about HIV.
How could you possibly be infected with HIV when saliva is not infectious? It also contains enzymes that inhibit HIV from causing an infection. Also, HIV renders inactive once it's exposed to air.
Bottom line, you don't need an HIV test.

"And oral sex is basically safe sex -- completely safe with respect to HIV and although not zero risk for other STDs, the chance of infection is far lower than for unprotected vaginal or anal sex. Please educate yourself about the real risks. If you stick with oral sex and condom-protected vaginal or anal sex, you have no HIV worries and very little worry about other STDs. " DR HANSFIELD
"I am sure you can find lots of people who belive that HIV is transmitted by oral sex, but you will not find scientific data to support this unrealistic concern..." DR HOOK
"HIV is not spread by touching, masturbation, oral sex or condom protected sex."- DR. HOOK
in the public HIV Prevention forum of MedHelp, TEAK and the other moderators maintain that oral sex in all forms is a zero risk activity. Would you agree with this assessment?
I TOTALLY AGREE / DR GARCIA
