Dear all,
First thanks for the forum. Sorry if I ask questions apparently obvious but I am so much scared and depressed...what a stupid bustard I am...
5 days ago being totally drunk I accidentally had an unprotected sex with a prostitute, her HiV status is unknown, but she had a tattoo. I was fingering both her vagina and anus, I also made very short oral to her (2 sec?) and she massaged my penis to ejaculation. I did not have vaginal/anal penetration but cannot exclude some touching her vagina with my penis. Then I washed by water and rubbed with the sheet we were lying on...
The hangover was terrible. I realized what I had done... It was not possible to get medical advise at the moment or get tested anyway (weekend + I was traveling on business) so I had taken 1.5 g azitromycin, and started combivir bid after 36 hrs on my own (I am in healthcare business, OMG).
The day after I experienced chills, leg fatigue, shivering, total loss of appetite, insomnia, hot flushes to the face, and herpes labialis appeared, but resolved in two days after topical Zovirax. Symptoms remain the same.
Obviously I severely anxious, scared, depressed and devoured by guilt.
My questions are:
1. What is my risk of contracting HIV?
2. Could the symptoms of ARS appear so early?
3. Could this herpes be newly acquired and do I need any test? I have had herpes labialis many times before.
4. Shall I continue nPEP if I cannot visit STD/HIV specialist this and next week?
5. Or it is better to discontinue and get tested earlier?
6. What about amitriptylin or benzo with combivir?
I feel I hardly can cope with the situation, almost cannot work and socialize...cannot behave the normal way...
Thank you in advance for your answers.
