Dear Doctors,
I started here a couple of months ago and I would like to end here as well hopefully putting all of this behind me and bringing me some closure. A brief recap of my story is as follows:
- Married man, Went to a massage parlor 8 weeks ago and received unprotected oral sex from the female worker.
- It lasted maybe 5 minutes and I did ejaculate but not in her mouth
- While there I did receive a small wound on the side of my penis. It was smaller than the tip of my pinky finger resembled a scratch or a chafe. There was no running blood but upon pressing my finger firmly against it a faint red spot would appear on my finger tip. Within 24 hours this wound was healed and not visible on me at all.
- I am in therapy for some extreme levels of anxiety and guilt, it has been going well. My wife has been excellent and is ready to resume sex our life. I can’t seem to get there with her.
Following the advise of the Dr. Jose here I did see my family doctor and I spoke to a sexual health counselor on numerous occasions. I had testing done for numerous STDs and HIV at 2 weeks and 5 and half weeks. 40 days to be exact. The HIV test checked for both the presence of antibodies and antigen. I have not symptoms up to this point. Both my family doctor and sexual health counselor have advised me that no further testing is required and added that I have not acquired any STD and certainly not HIV due to this exposure. I should put this behind me and resume sex with my wife if she has forgiven me, which she has.
I have found this website to be an excellent resource and I guess I am looking for one last opinion/piece of advice. Would you agree with the advice I have been given? Again thank you so much. And I do hope this is my last post and I continue to move on, find some closure and put this event behind me
Thank you,
Darren
