Could I have HIV?
in Health ·
Am I going blind or is there seriously zero discussion here about HIV/AIDS? I just typed "HIV AIDS" into the search bar and came up with absolutely nothing...
So, one quick question because I’m freaking out. I was with this girl today who seemed pretty sketchy—she told me straight up she’s hooked up with 3 or 4 guys recently and never uses protection. Like, ever. I was just sitting there like, wtf...😲
But look, I'm a guy, right? I ended up hooking up with her... let's just say things got oral. You can't catch AIDS through saliva, right?
The thing is, I'm really worried because I was fingering her while she was performing on me, and obviously, she was soaking wet. Then I used those same fingers to stroke myself later. Is it possible to catch HIV that way? And please, don't take this as a joke or think I'm being crude on purpose—I'm genuinely stressed out here.
Hey, mod, if there's a specific sub-forum where I should be asking this stuff, please just move my post instead of deleting it...
Also, if there's even a tiny chance I caught something, can someone tell me where I can go for testing in the States? And how long do I actually have to wait before a test becomes accurate? I read somewhere that you have to wait a certain amount of time for it to even show up on a screen...
