Rough Long Oral

Approximately  4 weeks ago. I had given unprotected oral sex to a african American guy in the military. It was really rough and throat was sore for acouple days after.  He came in my mouth and I spit it out.  I have no symptoms except for anxiety.

Can you get HIV from this and do I need to get tested for HIV?

I only posted again because this situation was different from any other I've experienced. If was rough in my throat. I just wanted to know if this could make a difference and if I should get tested.

He was pointing out that he already paid the Dr's to answer a question and he got an answer.

Good day Teak,

Quick question (and I am sure others will notice why). In the post you put out as a response to Beyond_Stressed (http://www.medhelp.org/posts/STDs/HIV---Oral-Sex/show/1453706?personal_page_id=2031711#post_6616954) Dr, H states "Oral sex almost never transmits HIV, so you really were not at significant risk."

That differs somewhat from the usual statement that "oral sex = no risk".

Should we presume that it is only because the good Dr. is covering all the potential (and anecdotal) clinical bases, allowing for "the one" possible case of a "partner having incredibly poor gum conditions with open wounds and receiving a very high viral dose through semen in the mouth" sort of thing ?  

I presume the answer is a simple "yes", but just to confirm.

Thanks !
