My first sexual encounter that I deeply regret

[5ateya]

I come from a conservative society and we do not have sex before marriage. One night I was very depressed so I went to a bar and had a lot of drinks. A prostitue came to me and I found myself going with her to her house. She give me an oral before puting the condom on. Then I had vaginal sex with her with a condom on during which I fingered her labia. I touched her labia with my tongue for no more that a second. Excuse me for all the details which I regret writing. Next day I woke up and I couldn't beleive what happened. I had diarrhea for the next 10 days, I couldn't eat, I lost my appetite, nausea, and mild fever. I am scared I have contracted HIV. Sometimes I feel tingling in my groins and I am out of order. Friends and family are confused why am I so quiet and depressed but I cannot share my fears with them.

Thank you all for your answers. It really helped me out.

I had a very similar experience to yours about a year ago. I was extremely depressed and had a loss of apetite. I would associate any "symptom" with HIV. 8 months later, I had a test and came out negative. What you are experiencing may be from stress and anxiety.

You are just feeling guilty and will probably feel better as time goes by. If you truly believe you had a risk then get tested within 3 months of the exposure. It will be negative though, I tested just to give myself peace of mind but like Lizzie said, you had no risk.

As the previous poster said, testing is not needed and HIV symptoms do not appear that early. You had no risk to begin with. You are merely anxious because of your encounter.

snap out of it...you had NO risk  :)

hiv is transmitted through...
unprotected vaginal / anal intercourse
sharing iv drug works
mother to child

hiv is not transmitted through fingering OR oral sex.

testing is not needed.
