risk of recieving oral sex

[imworried555]

Can you contract HIV from recieving oral sex from a women? And can  having someone rimming you cause a risk of infection due to HIV? I am hearing mixed reviews that it is low risk and others said no risk could anybody help please?

[imworried555]

just an update to those of you who were worried about recieving oral sex like myself. I rang the HIV  testing and counselling team in my area of the UK to book a test around the 8 week after exsposure mark. I explained what risk i THOUGHT i was exsposed to.(RECIEVING ORAL SEX)They told me that they WOULD NOT test me as recieving oral IS NOT A RISK OF HIV. The lady i spoke to has been testing for 11 years and never had a case through recieving oral sex.

Thanks for all your advice Teak,Vance Lizzie etc, hopefully i will stop worrying about no risk situations and not relate any illness i may get to HIV like all off us worried wells do. The lady on the phone said i had the perfect virus, all the symtoms that i read about i had on the perfect timescale when it could really be anything which a catholic nun could get. You cant base your  status on symtoms alone, you have facts which tell you if you had a risk or not. If you had a risk there are tests which will tell you 100%. thanks again all of you...

Dude i had bjs from the nastiest girls and many of em and never caught anything saliva will not expose you to hiv unless the girl has alot of blood and you have a wound on the penis.

The reason it happens during vaginal is because the penis is exposed to alot of vaignal fluid and its being squeezed alout so it exposes penis hole bjs doent work that way.

this will be last post and i hope i get a response that will pere me away from the internet and stop me worrying. Is there absoulty no risk from recieving oral for hiv? i have had symtoms but if you cannot contract hiv that way then are not related right? is there no need to test at all from this incident?

vance, i also kissed her vagina can you assure that i wouldnt catch hiv from that either. The symtoms im having are the symtoms people get from the virus, my heart wants to believe your advice. is it a fact that i would be negative from this encounter? this will be my last question as i want to do what you guys advise and move on.

[imworried555]

thanks vance,that is helpful

[puertoricananxiety]

if you only got head your safe boy take it easy teak,vance,lizzie they know what they are saying just relax, take a good breath its just paranoia noone has ever got h.i.v from a blowjob, i had the same worry and got tested and the result negative, maybe get tested tomorrow and finish with that and expect negative results. you cannot get it from a blow job. so relax if u can't then go tested its the only way to have a good night sleep but it will be negative if only you got a blow job. take it easy its just paranoia. hope these helps buddy. be brave it's all good

Read what we have told you. Read what Dr.Hook has told you. End of story, end of thread.

[imworried555]

sorry vance, im really worried and have been reading different things. im so confused

[Vance2335]

This is a warning. You have no reason to post anymore. You have been given answers by us here and Dr.Hook.
Move on or you will be reported.

[imworried555]

hi sorry to re-post, im worried as i stopped taking pep a week ago due to your advice, it is a week after taking pep and two weeks since the encounter. i have ulcers in the mouth and red little lumps on the roof of my mouth, would this related to HIV symtoms or any other std?

[imworried555]

hi teak any ideas how long i will feel like crap for since i stop taking it?

[imworried555]

I have read all the advice that you have given and have decided to stop taking PEP, as i agree there is no risk in catching HIV from this incident. I hope that i do not continue to worry. As Dr Hook said to me what is the point in trying to minimise zero risk. Thanks every one.

[Teak]

You shouldn't have been given it in the first place. Your doctor is a quack.

[imworried555]

Teak,should i stop taking PEP?

[Teak]

Your questions were answered now move on.

[imworried555]

Im so confused and sorry for posting another question. The sexual health clinic tell me its low risk and therefore i feel as though i should take this PEP, to lower it down to no risk. The other side of me doesnt want to take it because it makes me feel terrible and deep down i want to believe all of your advice. Im worried that if i stop taking it i will feel better for a few days and then think i wish i had kept going. Teak how long would i get these PEP sytoms for?
So many different opinions which are driving me mad and confused.
