Sick or just sIcK?
      #101111 - 07/10/04 05:27 PM

Well, I had protected vaginal intercourse with a girl a couple of times and she gave me a BJ after vaginal intercourse (no condom). I didn't go down on her. She tested negative for HIV cause she knew I was worried and she wanted a relationship. I was worried cause she was into some crazy S%#T in her past: heroin and drugs.
Basically, it has been about 8 weeks later and I have swollen glands and the odd mild fever. This has been going on for about 2 weeks now. No other symptoms. I have a sore throat about 3 weeks ago, but penicillin cleared that up.
Is this ARS? Like why the hell do my glands are still swollen? They are tender and burning in neck, arms, groin. There are no other symptoms at all. The doctor told me its a virus and just to rest and take vitamins. But like, is it ARS? Or am I just absolotuely crazy?


Thanks,
There for ya.

See she gave me a BJ after I have sex with her. I am worried that the vaginal fluid that dripped on my pubic hairs and maybe extreme base of my penis could transmit when she sucked. Any advice??

Usually ARS symptoms appear after 1-2 weeks or sooner after possible exposure. Its been 8 weeks, so why don't you have a test to make sure everything is okay? While experts recommend 12-13 weeks, 8 weeks would be a good indication of what a 12 week result would be. It is a cause of worry seeing her past behavior. She says she is negative,but who's to say what she did a week or even a month before she had sex with you? but just for your piece of mind, just have the test to make sure. As for the 8 week symptoms, it could just be all in your head and your brain could be playing tricks on you. You just might have a cold or flu or virus. Please don't use the symptoms to diagnose yourself. Good luck and please stay safe. -Jess
