Hiv from oral sex?

[john_west]

I am a male who gave unprotected oral sex to another male. His HIV status is unknown even though he said he was HIV negative, he couldve been lying. When I got back from Spring Break at Padre, I developed flu-like symptoms a week after the encounter (fever, night sweats, coughing, sore throat, tender, somewhat swollen, lymph nodes)
my tonsils have been swollen for like 5 years, i'm to scared to get them taken out.
I have braces and my gums bleed every now and then. My gums bleed when i brush my teeth sometimes (not all the time).
He did not ejaculate in my mouth. I'm not sure if i tasted pre cum or not because i kept spitting out my own saliva.
I havent got tested yet but i know i need to.
My question is should i be worried i have HIV?

Oral is not a risk for HIV. Only sex risks are unprotected penetrating anal or vaginal so you had no HIV risk. Your cuts are irrelevant and nothing you add can make you at risk for HIV.
Your self-diagnosed symptoms are likely in your imagination due to the faulty premise that you are dying, which you aren't. Since you didn't live in a bubble you can catch a flu like anyone else.
Whatever tonsil issue you have and recommended action needs to be decided by your doctor, because you have no medical training.

Thanks for responding, it means a lot.
I keep reading that people say oral isnt a risk and some say its still a risk.
