Hiv risk and flu symptoms

I had very bad experince with a csw

First she add some lubrican cream on her vagina we kissed deeply for few minutes but ufortunately after kissing she rubbed my penis with the same hand
i touched her vagina and later i masurbated my self with clean tissue covered head of my penis
We did not have oral or any penetrative sex

I had genital warts before this incidence

One month later i had low grade fever and sore throat and diarrhea

It's stated correctly here that you had no risk.  I'm surprised that you fear this as a 'medical student'.  I would suggest you educate yourself if you are going to be working with patients any time soon.  HIV is a fragile virus.  How are you going to be in contact with patients if you fear you can get HIV in these superficial ways?  Make sure you can handle the job of practicing medicine emotionally without your anxiety rising needlessly on a regular basis as you come in contact with people.

HIV is only spread in adults through unprotected vaginal or anal sex or sharing of IV drug needles.  That's it.  No true scientific literature disputes that other than anecdotal stories that have no proof behind them.

Actually iam medical student i

So i say (not considered)
Because i know that science is not limited and guidelines frequently updated
I don't have any experience with hiv patients as hiv is not screened at all where i live
And medicine is not only what u read in textbooks
So i asked your forum
About my mental health
Iam used to be healthy mentally but i have doubts now about it

Maybe you should see a therapist to see if they can resolve this anxiety. You might just be overly anxious at the moment and need some one on one discussion with a professional.

But if you are a medical student then you have to learn how to think better than to diagnose a disease like hiv just because you have a sore throat, otherwise you will make many errors in practice.
hiv docs can not diagnose from symptoms and you should not be wasting your time making silly claims that a sore throat can prove hiv..

This answers all of your HIV questions, and if you can think of any more just reread about the 3. You had zero risk therefore  testing is irrelevant to your situation because you had zero risk. HIV is a fragile virus, which is instantly inactivated in air and also in saliva which means it is effectively dead so it can't infect from touching, external rubbing or oral activities. It doesn't matter if you and they were actively bleeding or had cuts at the time either because the HIV is effectively dead.  
Only 3 adult risks are the following:
1. unprotected penetrating vaginal with a penis
2. unprotected penetrating anal sex with a penis
3. sharing needles that you inject with.
The only way to get HIV is if you did one of the 3. The situation you describe is a long way from any of these 3.
Even with blood, lactation, cuts, rashes, burns, etc the air or the saliva does not allow inactivated virus to infect from touching, external rubbing or oral activities. This HIV science is 40 years old and very well established, so no detail that you can add to your encounter will change it from zero risk. Because of all the research statistics, doctors have calculated the risk from what you describe to be less than that of being hit by a meteor, therefore no one will get HIV from what you did in the next 40 years of your life either.
If you didn't have one of the 3 then you are just worrying about your own hiv theory - which is unrealistic for you to think that can become reality - so you should move on back to your happy life instead.
You did not have a "very bad" experience with the csw, so stop worrying.

One month later someone coughed on your lips and you got a sore throat like billions of other negative people do each year.
Thanks alot for your help
I know it is not considered a risk but iam really sick i searched for many circumstances that lead me to have flu symptoms after this incidence
GUILR FEAR ANAXEITY are not easy thing to live with
I have a family wife and daughter and iam afraid to transmit any infection to her
I think about testing but with symptoms testing will make me more anxious
You are not making any sense. Reread what you wrote and you will see what I mean.
At this point your anxiety is a bit of a mental health issue when you make statements that it is not a risk, yet somehow you think flu (which billions of negative people get) proves you are positive.
` it is not considered a risk ``
What do you mean not considered? Do you feel that you are a medical researcher who has discovered a new way to get hiv, that the rest of the medical community has not considered?
