Slightly in shock that you just go offline when asked about this. I dont feel that is in anyway supportive.
This forum is here to provide people with reassurance about whether they were at risk, you made NO attempt to even tell me the reasons as to why its not.
Thanks!
Well what a grown up and well informed discussion you put across?
Rather than dismissing me how about trying to teach the actual science and evidence behind why oral sex is no risk as opposed to letting people walk around with ill informed views on transmission? After all, your profile says your a HIV lecturer...surely its a passion of yours then?
why should someone not say oral sex? It may well be VERY low risk and i know of studies proving no seroconversions in over 19000 acts of oral sex with one poz and one neg partner but those poz people are on meds....!
If the risk were that non existant guidelines INTERNATIONALLY would change however conservative health authorities are!
What was your risk and don't say oral sex.
I understand that, and above said i would follow that guideline...
I am more interested as to whether these glands i talk of are a common thing, as in are glands due to ARS rather large, or lots of small yet enlarged (if u catch my drift) glands...??

Post-test discussion for individuals who test HIV negative
The need for a repeat HIV test if still within the window period after a specific exposure should be discussed. Although fourth generation tests shorten the time from exposure to seroconversion a repeat test at three months is still recommended to definitively exclude HIV infection.
