Protected oral scare
At the end of May I had protected oral with a escort. I had a condom on the entire process but she licked by scrotum for maybe 5 seconds. The entire process only took maybe 3 mins if that. About a week ago I started getting weird feelings in my stomach kinda like bloating. After I eat is the worse and I have had a lot of gas and belching. I have not had a fever that I know of and no rash but did have one day/ night of sweats after I started looking at symptoms of hiv. The last week has been horrible as far as anxiety I'm relating any thing to possibly being a symptom. I've read a lot of the responses on here that it is no risk I guess I just need to hear it from someone. I've been contemplating getting tested but was waiting to see if I could just get it out of my head that I caught anything and see if the symptoms go away. Any input would be really appreciated to help ease my mind. Thank you
Not that I think you will change you answer but I forgot to also add that I do currently have a somewhat white coated tongue not as bad as ones I've seen online, and short headaches that last very briefly from 10 seconds to a min occasionally. With all that being said and your original response do you feel there is any need at all to get tested? Thanks again

Condoms are the most effective way to prevent HIV and STDs.
PrEP is used by people with high risk to prevent HIV infection.
Can I get HIV from surfaces, like toilet seats?
Can you get HIV from casual contact, like hugging?
Frequency of HIV testing depends on your risk.
Post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) may help prevent HIV infection.
Protected oral: Absolutely no risk for anything.
Tongue contact with skin (of the scrotum or anywhere else) doesn't transmit HIV or STDs. Your sympoms are not from any STD from the exposure last May -- and no STD or HIV causes symptoms of the kind you describe.
