okay, here we go. . . i had unprotected oral sex with a guy i had just met that day. i know what you're thinking- "well, what does she expect? if she's doing that all the time chances are she's going to contract it sooner or later." the truth is, i've had two partners in my life: one was my first "steady" boyfriend who i was totally in love with and the first was the boyfriend i have now. so, the guy i performed oral sex on never told me he was hiv positive but afterwards he seemed quite adament about me spitting out the semen. this can be interpreted in many ways (and trust me, i've disected them all). there was no other sexual contact. i just gave him a blow job. so, a while after that i got sick. my symptoms were extreme nausea, dizziness and aching joints. i thought about the possibility of contracting hiv then, but brushed it off thinking i would just wait to see how things developed. i went to speak with a woman at the std clinic and she eased my mind a little bit. i don't remember exactly what she said but i stopped worrying about for about a week after. she told me to think about what i would do if i did test positive before taking the test. i'm eighteen years old, my parents are hardcore christians, i graduated with decent grades, i have a lot of friends. i honestly didn't think i'd be able to deal with it if i tested positive. i met this guy (who is now my boyfriend) about a month after the encounter and we totally fell in love. we have had sex but i always made sure it was protected. i have been scared sick (literally) for the last sick months and haven't been able to talk to anyone about it. i live in a small town, it would get around so quickly and aids is still seen as a gay man's disease here. i still don't know if i'm positive. i have developed an ulcer and severe headaches. i don't know what to do. i know i'm going to fall apart one of these days if i don't talk to him about it. what if i gave him the disease. my symptoms now are body aches, lack of energy, headaches, itchy skin and minor bruising. something that has given me a bit of recent hope is that all my roommates are sick with the flu and i haven't caught it. does that mean anything? any advice would be very much appreciated. jane

God... I wish I could help you...but I can't even bring myself to test although I suspect exposure. I just want to tell you what someone kind told me....you can't just feel it or KNOW that you have it... bottom line is you have to gather up the courage and TEST...and realize that life is gonna go on...there are millions of people making changes to their lifestyles and LIVING with this disease NOW! I have to bring myself to take that advice...I wish I could keep you from panicking but I feel anxiety myself. We just have to calm down. I have a little bit...because if you're not sick....you will make yourself sick..mentally and physically in some other way.
Take care, Someone who can relate.

The liklihood of catching HIV through oral sex is rare and slim, but possible. If you spit out his semen and you did not have any cuts or blood in your mouth, the chances of you getting anything from that is very slim. It is a little wierd that he insisted on you spitting out though. Most guys dont suggest that. You might want to get tested just to make sure but I think the chances of you getting HIV from that is extremely slim.
