 Hello, You got poked by the delivery guy's package????? Hmmm . . . . I'm sure I've seen that plotline in gay porno flicks several times over the years. Dude, your chances of contracting HIV from that kind of poke are so remote as to be nonexistent. I see no cause for concern whatsoever. Testing is always available, but not warranted in this case. (So just how big was this delivery guy's package anyway???) Dr. Bob | ||||||||
