My exposure was from a CSW in Macau back in 2013. I received oral sex from her and that was the only exposure.

I was tested with the Abbott Architect AG/AB on the 7th, 10th, 16th, and 21st WEEK after that episode, all NEGATIVE. 

From that time until now I have experienced angular chelitis, lymph node swelling (might be wrong, but I can fee it) and the most concerning is fat loss in the limbs and weight gain in the stomach and chest. I deal with health anxiety as well and so I usually google symptoms, sent a few emails to HIV doctors, etc over this ongoing 9-year course. I take anti-depressants as well to help but everytime I see my thin thighs and arms it really brings me back to anxiety mode. 

Do I really need to move on now? Or is the fat loss a sign of HIV? 

The HIV blood tests are among the most accurate diagnostic tests ever developed, for any medical condition. The results overrule all other factors:  no matter how high the risk of HIV and no matter how typical someone's symptoms may seem to be, those factors are always less accurate than the tests. It is 100% certain you do not have HIV and that other things are responsible for your various symptoms.

And anyway, you had a zero risk exposure for HIV:  there has never been a scientifically proved case of HIV transmission oral to penis. You certainly are not the first case in history! And your symptoms are not as typical of HIV as you seem to think. For example, the fat loss that occurs in some cases of AIDS has a particular pattern (i.e. the body areas involved) that you do not describe.

Thanks again for your confidence in our services. I hope these comments are helpful and allow you to concentrate (with your doctors) on other causes of your symptoms. Good luck with it. Let me know if anything isn't clear.

What do you mean there is a specific pattern? The fat loss I have is from the legs, arms, buttocks, and face… all the while having a big stomach and manboobs… 

Is that lipo? 

But this really doesn't matter. You're focusing on the wrong part of my reply. Regardless of fat loss and metabolism, the blood test results prove you do not have HIV. Disregard everything else! The pattern of fat loss you report (limbs etc while retaining central/belly fat) fits with almost any medical condition you can think of -- from malnutrition to cancer to tuberculosis to inadeaute exercise to depression to diabetes to many others. These include HIV/AIDS, but your test results prove it isn't the cause for you.

That completes the two follow-up comments and replies that come with each question and so ends this thread. I hope the discussion has been helpful and that you'll move forward with no further worries about HIV (and no more HIV tests). Good luck.
