paranoid or not? hiv
About one year ago I was in Cape Town and met a guy. We kissed but did not have penetrative sex, but I remember that he did touch my vagina and try to penetrate without using a condom. Obviously I freaked and pulled away. Things did not go further and I told him to leave. I was thankful nothing had happened but when i returned home the topic came up with my girlfriends about hiv and how bad it is especially in Cape Town of all places. Now I am absolutely sick with worry that he could have give me hiv if he had precum and it touched my vagina. I know I need to get a test but I'm absolutely terrified and have completely convinced myself that I'm sick. One week later after Cape Town I had flu like symptoms with an awful headache and now I have noticed a white bump on my tongue which after googling I'm terrified it could be oral hairy leukoplakia. Please help what do you guys think?
Thankyou for the quick response I honestly feel a million times better. Much appreciated! :-)
