I had a vaginal intercourse with an African escort girl which lives already several years in Luxembourg. Condom was slipped and

We had an vaginal intercourse from around 4-5mminutes without condom. This was 32 days ago. I have really fear now. I have done a 4th generation test a day 

19, 23, 28 and 31 which come back all negativ. But now when I wake up at day 32 I noted that I have several small dots. 1 region mouth, 3 on left arm, 2 on abdomen and

1 on right leg. Could this be a Hiv rash? I checked on several pages from Germany and France and they said that there is only a accuracy of around 95 percent after 

Day 35 for a 4th generation test and 99 percent after 6 weeks. How are my odds in this course. Thks in advance

Congratulations on your commitment to condom protected sex- this will do much to protect you from HIV and other STIs although occasionally condoms do slip or break as you experienced.  The risk from this encounter was relatively low- most commercial sex workers do not have STIs and even when a partner does have untreated HIV, the risk of infection from a single episode of unprotected vaginal sex is less than 1 infection in more than 1000 exposures.  Further, we would say that current tests for HIV are more accurate than you have heard.  In our experience at 28 days, more than 99% of recent infections would be detected and at 6 weeks results are typically completely conclusive.  

Thus, it is very unlikely that the rash you noted represents recently acquired HIV.  In addition, when persons experience a rash due to recently acquired HIV, they typically also have high fever, a sore throat and generalized muscle or joint aches.  If you wish to determine whether your rash is due to HIV or not (I doubt that it is), you can test for HIV using a combination HIV antigen/antibody test of the sort you describe above.  If your rash is due to HIV, your test will be positive since when symptoms are due to HIV, tests are always positive.  (I realize that you were tested for HIV one day before you noticed you rash however there are no good scientific data on how often a test would be positive a day before the appearance of symptoms and while I suspect the test would be positive, I have no scientific data to base this statement on).

i hope this information is helpful.  If you wish to prove that your rash is not due to HIV, I suggest you test again for HIV.  EWH

So I will go tomorrow again to check my status. What I forgot to mention previous was that I had an Pcr test quantitative with min 20copy/ml at 11 days after exposure. I have no idea if this is important to mention.Plays this a role in accordance with the other tests I have already done? Thks

I anticipate that your test tomorrow will be negative.  EWH

Your test results prove that your rash was NOT due to HIV.  

I hope this information has been helpful.  This thread is now complete and will be closed shortly.  EWH
