I'm sorry for your confusion. The CDC information that you have is out of date and the CDC currently states that HIV tests taken at 42 days (6 weeks) are entirely conclusive. That is a fact. The lingering sore throat that you have may be due to a virus other than HIV. I can assure you however that your 41 day result, plus the sort of exposure you describe absolutely and conclusively PROVES that you did not acquire HIV through the events that you describe.
If you can still reach your partner and he is willing, if he were to test at this time and get a negative result, that too would PROVE that you do not have HIV, something that I am already entirely confident is the case for you . Really.
We typically close our threads after a total of three interactions. I can keep this thread open so that you may make one additional reply before it is closed but once again I want to emphasize that:
1. The sort of exposure you describe is a no risk event for HIV. As you can see on the CDC web site, mutual masturbation is a no risk event for HIV.
2. Your 41 day test result effectively rules out the possibility that you acquired HIV from the exposure you have described.
3. I have never seen nor heard of anyone who has acquired HIV through the sort of exposure you describe, nor have I EVER heard of anyone who was not taking anti-HIV medications whose 4th generation, combination HIV antigen/antibody test results were not conclusive 42 days after an exposure.
I hope these comments are helpful. EWH

A final comment. Mono-like syndromes can certainly be caused by more than the virus tested for in standard mono tests. As worrisome as this coincidence is, it is just that, a coincidence. Please try not to worry. this will pass.
Thread will be closed shortly. EWH
