HIV - Thai Massage
Hi, about 2-3 weeks ago I had a Thai massage, where I was given a full body massage with oil. I got a long hand job and also got a blowjob (protected) with a condom for about 1 minute.
I feel a bit paranoid as the blowjob was for a short time, and I didn't ask any questions. Is it possible for her to have infected me? Maybe if it was a used condom (from someone else as I didn't pay attention to whether it was used). Would the semen from someone else survive in the condom?
Sorry if this sounds a bit silly, but it's really making me paranoid and stressed.
I have started experiencing headaches, and what I think are swollen lymph nodes in my neck, armpit and groin. Also I feel tired and lethargic. I also went to urinate the other day and experienced a short sting which radiated down the perineum for 2 seconds, but has not happened since.
Hope to hear from you soon,

Nobody ever gets HIV by massage or by oral sex. As you realize yourself, your concern that the condom had been used previously makes no sense, and it would be a risk even if it had. Your symptoms sound like anxiety only; you're noticing normal variations in your body. You don't need testing for HIV. Do your best to stop worrying about it.
I thought the condom was used from a customer from before, with another mans HIV semen in it.
No it can not but why is this an issue for you? HIV cannot get inside the condom from her hand after you ejaculated!!
Thanks Howard, you mentioned "makes no sense, and it WOULD be a risk" is that a typing error?
