31 days hiv duo negative but ongoing symptoms

[mrhasta]

Hi Dr,

I am a 39 yo man. I had unprotected oral sex with a man who I allowed to ejaculate in my mouth. I didn't swallow but I know I exposed myself to a very big risk. 4 weeks after exposure, I had swollwen lymph nodes under my armpit, my throat and groins. Unfortunately, approx. 10 days after exposure, I also had sex with my wife, protected vaginal but unprotected oral, I didn't ejaculate but she might have received precum from me.

At 31 days post-exposure, I had a so called "duo" test. The results were:
p24 antigen 0.00 (negative)
hiv 1/2 ab/ag antibody 0.07 (negative <0.25)

This was encouraging but still me and my wife has swollen lymph nodes and a bit fatigue.

Can you please comment on my situation?

Thanks in advance.

I tested negative with the same test at 60 days also. But the fatigue and sore throat remains. Afraid to turn positive at 90.

I let him ejaculate into my mouth. I read that hiv can get through mucosa in the mouth even if not swallowed.

Hi - you did not have any risk and did not need to test.  However, if you HAD had a risk, your DUO test would be conclusive.  You are HIV negative and do not need to test anymore.
