condom broke - worried sick
hello everyone
my story in short, out of sheer stupidity, i ended up having sex with CSW (Bangalore , India) on 22nd Oct. no oral, no kissing,did not touch her vagina.she made me ware 2 condoms at the same time, after a couple of seconds condom broke, may be less the 10 seconds i checked it and was horrified ,during the act she kept her legs closed and i did not cum in her. when asked her about the status she swear on god and said she was clean. after 20 mins washed my genticals with antiseptic liquid .
on 25th OCT (3rd day) ELISA AND PCR -DNA( HIV1 QUALITATIVE PCR, method was real time polymerase chain reaction) both came back NON REACTIVE,NOT DETECTED.
end of 4th week soar throat,feverish felling but when checked 98.7 F. doctor said it was pharyngitis, i was travelling a lot and climate was changing. took medicines for couple of days and it was OK. no rash, no fever,no nodes was swollen,did not check weight, lost apatite had abdominal pain for couple of days.
another test on 6th DEC (45 days) ELISA( method was CIMA (ANTIBODIES ONLY lab told me it was forth generation))- NEGATIVE.
mid of 7th weeks i was out in cold almost whole night, couple of days later i again have throat pain, stuffy nose with very thick yellow phlegm, red eyes with yellow mucus and node under right ear ireetating, don't think it is swollen.
if fell it is a seroconversion as i have read somewhere that some autoimmune disease can cause delay seroconversion ( i am suffering from rheumatoid arthritis and Alopecia areata taking homeopathy medicine.
now i am dead worried.please help me
1) how accurate is test at 45 days. have seen any one turning positive after this time?
2) is it true that autoimmune diseases causes delay seroconversion?
3) has any of condom broke incidents has ever been infected?
Note : i have no other habits no major illness. please ***** my situation. your feedback will be save a life.
