transmission risk

[tetafelix]

Doctor,
I went to a coffee shop to buy some tea, when I got to work I heated the paper cup an additional 30 seconds to get
it hotter, I took off the lid and took a few sips afterwards I noticed what look like a blood smear on the lip of the cup i checked my lip and it was bleeding. I know that the possibility of the blood smear on the cup was me I cannot stop wondering and worrying that the cup had it already when I got perhaps from the person who gave it to me from a cut.
my question is
1) IF the cup had blood on it from the person who gave it to me and I drank it after heating it further and since I had wound on my lip and it was bleeding is there a concern to this? Can  I get Hiv? I l know that there should be blood to blood transfer im so scared do i have to take pep its been 24 hrs already please help any thing I should worry about? hepatitis? i just had my yearly checkup done everything was ok

Getting married or not, if you have no other risks for HIV, testing would be a waste of money, time, and energy.  But it's fine with me if you want to do it anyway.  Since you don't need testing, it doesn't matter when you do it.  Feel free to read any of the hundreds of other threads on this forum about how long it take for HIV tests to become positive.  I won't have any further comment.

Thank you doctor,

Even if the blood was someone else's, the risk of HIV, hepatitis or anything else from such brief exposure is zero for all practical purposes.  Anyway, the chance it came from someone else is zero for practical purposes.  You don't need PEP, and you probabably would not be able to find any provider willing to give it to you in these circumstances.  You have no worries here.  Let it go.
