Symptoms of what?

I had jerking nodes all over body about 5 days after act. 4 days after that I had fever for days, night sweats for three days (At night I was wearing a shirt, cheap wannabe thermo, sweater, and slept with two blankets) the night sweats were so bad that sweater was damp. I also had arm pit area pain and I felt a lump there to boot. Dry throat with lump in back or side (did not hurt), little to no coughing (I don't know if that is a sore throat). No congestion:(I remember at this time I was trying to avoid getting sick so I tried to keep warm, even putting heater in car sometimes. It was a little cold but not that cold as I live in sum my area. Was that acute symptoms?

...why didn't you test back in December for your STD problem. I know this isn't the STD forum but you keep coming back time after time with the same questions...Why don't you get your negative HIV test too and MOVE ON

I am just stating my own experience, but also from info I have gathered in the 3 months that I was scared, all boils down to No Penetration, No Risk.
Also chance of HIV infection is 1 : 2000, so if indeed you were infected by this incident (which I believe is very remote, if not impossible) then your one very unlucky person.

Unprotected sex carries a risk off transmition off HIV.  If you used protection their would have been no risk.

I wrote the wrong word above. I said that I carased my slight in top of penis. It should say slit, you know the little hole where urine comes out. Well the her vaginal secretions went inside there after I had used the baby wipe. So I know it was quite tender. I guess that makes it riskier cause transmission would be easier???? I would estimate a couple of drops went inside. Is that worse then unprotected sex???? Because here for sure something went in. Howl long have you been giving advice? Thanks

Also I might add that symptoms is not an accurate way of diagnosing HIV and your symptoms came too early for ars which I might add you never had any risk to start with as what scratch81 had said

Your exposure had no risk... HIV can not survive outside the body.

I used a baby wipe on my penis. From tip to base. Bad idea as it stung and made it a little red. I then touched myself, but had some of her vaginal secretions. I carased my penis head but I inadvertently made the mistake of sliding my finger (that had vaginal secretions) through the slight in top of my penis. She then touched my penis (I am not worried about this although she was wet) I am uncircumsized.

Since fluids got in me, that is like vaginal sex. My questions is are symptoms acute signs??? I PAID HER TWENTY DOLLARS. Also, nodes by jaw swell at two weeks,  not sure about any other place. Is this part of acute?

Now, I have recurrent night sweats, sometimes fevers, sometimes I feel slight pain here and there in the nodes areas.

The sweater and thermo were two separate garments by the way. Just for clarification.
