I was working in vietnam and visited a massage parlour.

It started with unprotected handjob 

Then protected sex that lasted roughly 5 minutes, then couldn’t finish so laid back on bed removed condom and finished with unprotected handjob.

The condom was intact throughout the intercourse

3 days later I started feeling like I was having ARS symptoms, and when I returned to UK I had a HIV1&2 ABS/P24AG, syphilis, chlamydia and ghonereah test at day 15 and and all came back negative. I now know it’s early to test, but is it a good indicator?

8 weeks after the exposure I am feeling like I have dull mild aches around my body. Is this a symptom ? Please help me as I am driving myself insane with fear. 

1.  Most people, including masseuses' do not have HIV.

2.  Masturbation, including mutual masturbations when partners get each others' secretions on each other are no risk events.  The CDC, the WHO, and experts agree on this

3.  Condom protected sex is safe sex when the condom does not break.  They are highly effective for preventing HIV and other STIs

4.   Your negative test at the time you had symptoms proves that the symptoms were not due to HIV.  When symptoms are due to HIV, tests are always positive

If you had asked if you needed testing, I would have said there is no need for testing.  Your risk for HIV is virtually zero.  Please don't worry.   EWH

Is it true that from roughly 11 days if you are infected your body will produce P24 protein ? And that would be detected at day 15 ? I know it’s not a specific test it was part of the AG/AB test. I am also a circumsized male. Which I believe lowers the chance of infection also is that correct? 

Ever since the exposure, everytime I have a pain somehwere in my body I suspect it’s due to HIV. My skin feels like it’s burning but no rash, do you think that is due to anxiety ?

Thank you for the quick response Doctor! 

Circumcision reduces the risk of acquistion of HIV by about 50%.  For you that is of no consequence since you have no risk for HIV to start with.

Please don't worry.  EWH

Sometimes my anxiety and fear make me believe some of the feelings in my body is HIV related. And I find it hard to shift these emotions.

I understand this is my last response and want to thank you for your words. You mention that the risk is virtually zero. Statistically speaking would the chances be less than 1-1000,000 for protected inter course. Being a male and circumcised.

Thank you again 

As you point out above. This will be my last response. The thread will be closed shortly. EWH.
