Looking for reassurance but honesty

Stupidly providing oral sex to a man. I am a man too. It was brief. He said he was negative. But his behavior later made me think he was risky. I guess we both were. I got the flu four days later. My physician actually diagnosed it as the flute. Put me on Tamiflu period last and only 4 days. Then 10 days later I developed what look like hives on the back of one of my legs. Then the other leg. A few days later. This lasted a week. I was concerned about HIV so I got a 13-day Duo test. It came back negative. Then I got swollen armpit glands. And growing glands. They're soft to the touch period and sore. Also somewhat of a rash. But maybe that part is my imagination. I have to look really hard. So it day 17 I got an rna test that was negative.   At day 19 I got a duo and rna test.  Both negative too.  Lymph nodes now swollen a week.  I plan to test again laterms bit would assume my assumed low risk and 2 rna test 2 weeks plus would be rrassiring?  Thank you guys in advance.

Also I was wondering if the Tamiflu could delay results?

Good news, you can stop beating yourself up because you have zero risk for HIV.


HIV is inactivated in saliva and air which means it can't infect from oral which includes kissing. So those are 2 reasons you had zero risk. Double zero risk.
No one in 40 years of history got HIV from oral.  Even with blood, lactation cuts, rashes, burns etc saliva and air do not allow inactivated virus to infect, so you had zero risk.

Self diagnosis is generally wrong, so you are wasting your time with no medical experience trying to be a Google doctor. Odds are highest that your fear is giving you psychosomatic symptoms due to the faulty premise that you are dying or maybe you had a flu like every other human who doesn't have HIV gets a few times a year whether they had sex or not. Whatever health issue you have is not HIV related.

Either saliva or air on their own will instantly inactivate HIV.
