playing in the back

A week ago I spent the night with a guy I met recently.  While playing around he began putting what seemed his finger inside my bottom.  I have never bottomed and do not enjoy anything in there so I moved his finger out really quickly and as soon as I felt the tip of his finger.  I panicked because, while I believe it was his finger, what if it was his penis.  I have never had anything inside me and don't really know the difference.  What risk would I have had it been his penis and not his finger?  Like I said, it all happened quickly and as soon as I felt the attempt to go in I moved the 'body part' away, though maybe the tip went in.  It's been a week and I have been having major sore throat, green phleghm issues, constant diarrhea, some cough and chills and wanted to gage my level of risk.  I was on my stomach and so I didn't necessarily see exactly which 'body part' it was but know that had I wanted to go further, condoms would have been used no questions on that.  I appreciate whoever can help me with this.

Look your sarcasm is not appreciated. Im aware in thickness differences but when you feel you were doing Safe activities and then you become ill you tend to run by every base to make sure in fact you did what you remember you did. I was merely gaging level of risk.  I still thank you for taking the time to respond; just not your tone.

I don't think Lizzie was was ever sarcastic. I personally feel that you do not have that sense of humor to pick up what she actually said.

Fingering does not have any risk of HIV transmission. As you were sure that it was his finger, (so I moved his finger out really quickly and as soon as I felt the tip of his finger), why are you bringing a penis into the discussion?

Sorry, my previous post was for rogers, not for LIZZIE. My apologies for a wrong "copy/paste" action.

I guess i wasn't looking for humor.  I went through my memory of my activities and then realized a tiny possibility of something happening.  This forum seems to be a place where questions are answered for various scenarios and I came here when I thought of the question that I didn't see completely answered in past forums:  if someone both minimally and briefly enters you is it automatically reason for immediate care or definite testing.  The response left me feeling like  fool.  I am aware that I put myself in a questionable and foolish situation...I don't need to feel twice as bad for not knowing thicknesses. Like I sad, I still appreciate the work and help of all individuals here.  I just didn't appreciate how the information was relayed.

Just to clear it up, You would know if it were a penis - It would not go in to you with ease

From what you describe you were at NO risk of HIV infection at all

Hope this helps
