any ideas

I have asked this in the hiv forum before and been told that i am barking up the wrong tree so thought i would ask here. Basically a couple of Christmases ago i engaged in oral sex with a man, i am a man, there was no ejaculate. 4 days later my arms were tingling a lot and at 10 days i was bed bound for a week with diarrhea and swollen glands, my skin went spotty and puffy and i had a rash on my arms including some weird bubble inside my elbow. I tested negative for mono. After i started feeling better, maybe 3 weeks i was sat and my face went totally purple out of nowhere, then never again. Since then i have always had some sort of discomfort in my groin and under arms but no swelling which is odd. My face just seems more pink than it used to be. Any ideas would be appreciated. To me it sounds like hiv but apparently that isn't a possibility.

Not to go into HIV detail but no it doesn't sound like HIV at all and you got good advice in that forum.

As for STD's it was low risk for STD's and symptoms are not of a STD.
