Is it possible for me to have contracted hiv?!
Question: Is it possible for me to have contracted hiv?
I was intimate with a guy over a month ago, and now I'm panicking that I have hiv because I have two sores in the back of my mouth and a sore throat but that is all. He barely penetrated because... to be honest I wasn't interested in having sex, so when he penetrated it was only the tip of his penis. Is it possible I could be infected. My doctor won't be in today so I have to try and make an appt tomorrow for monday, and I can't take waiting...
Answers:
It's theoretically possible but so, SO unlikely. You've probably just got some run-of-the-mill virus. Don't stress yourself! Just make the appointment, take some vitamins and some tylenol/paracetamol, and who knows - you could be better by Monday. And next time be careful, huh? Hope you feel better soon.
Very unlikely, HIV is very hard to transmit. Are you 100% sure he was HIV positive? It may be another STD but it is probably nothing.
