Could i be HIV Postive?

Hi

A few years ago i had a very drunken experience with a prostitute while on a night out with friends. I went back to the prostitutes house, we both got naked a she proceeded to give me a sensual massage while sitting on my back naked. We then has protected sex, 2 condoms on penis, full intercourse an then oral. I fingered her bare handed and then proceeded to lick my fingers. I noticed the next day that i has a cut on my finger and i suffer from mild gingivitis. Also when i got home a couple of hours later i noticed that i had not removed the condom properly and it was stuck to my upper pelvis for a few hours This will have had some of her vaginal fluid on it) Does this put me in high risk. Prostitutes in my area are screened for HIV but there is a high prevalence of drug use so im worried she may have been hiv positive.

As mentioned this was a few years ago, i have since been feeling unwell for years, i have been diagnosed as having lichen planus (immune condition affecting mouth and skin) i have recurring chronic prostatitis and regularly suffer from high temperature and fevers. In addition i always seems to lack energy or feel tired. My doctor has mentioned on many occasions that i may have a suppressed immune condition but never mentioned having a hiv test. I have has countless blood work done, always coming back fine, although it did once show that i had some liver dysfunction, i was prescribed to take some folic acid, doctor has never mentioned it again so i guess it did not show up in recent tests.

I am now starting to think that i may have been infected with HIV years ago. Think i may try get a test next week but i feel ill with anxious.

Also i have always had protective sex since that date.

Fingering is not a risk period. Doesn't matter if there was cuts, nicks, abrasions or hangnails.

Sorry for this question, why there is no risk if you introduce your finger which is with cuts??????? it will be a penetration, right?

thanks Kumar

Is it even worth me getting a test with such little risk?

Strange why i feel so anxious after so many years, i'll tell you i will not be looking at symptons on google again, can really make you feel ill without anything really being wrong.

from what you described..you didn't have a risk
note- never use 2 condom at once..increases chances for a break
