HIV acquired?

about 3 weeks ago i had my first bi-sexual encounter, i am a male. This was an oral encounter given and recieved.
a few days ago white dots appeared on my lips, have had excessive direhhea, flu like symptoms. I went to the er this morning, cbc tests were normal, no increase in any blood count. They adminsitered a fluid iv due to the dehydration.
my throat has been sore and glands appear to be swollen almost like strep and not i just noticed 6 timy red dots on the left leg near the groin.
i really need some advice here i am beyond scared at this point

Sorry for writing on this thread - I don't mean to hijack this thread. But I am in a not so similar situation. But I had this question in another thread I had started for my symptoms.

Why is everyone here so sure that oral sex cannot be a means of contracting HIV ? Can someone please point to some source. I am just plain worried too and want to be able to read up a credible source of how probable is it to get HIV due to oral sex. Looks like dehydration is a common symptom I am sharing with ctd1234.

thanks and sorry again for posting here.

this is beyond embarrassing and scary as hell.

continue to work with a doctor if your symptoms persist.  they are NOT related to hiv due to the fact that oral sex is not a means of contracting hiv.
