Scared I got infected from french kissing
      #139353 - 03/29/05 07:26 AM

Does anyone know if it is possible to get infected through french kissing. I was making out with this person and before anything else happened she told me that she had hiv. Also if I caught it from her would I have had some symptoms by now? It was 7 weeks ago and I didn't get any fever or any rash or anything. The only thing is soreness in my neck and groin and armpits though I didn't actually feel any large lymph nodes. I am too scared to get a test. If anyone can help I appreciate it. I went to the testing center in my area but was too scared to go through with the test. Also is 7 weeks considered a reliable test if I can get up the courage?
Thanks

French kissing can only transmit HIV if the infected person's BLOOD, SEMEN, or VAGINAL FLUIDS enter the uninfected person's body.

If you think you are at risk GET TESTED.

7 weeks is long enough to get tested. I would follow up at 3 months, just to be sure.
