Hi
Thank you for query. I am Dr Bharatesh D Basti answering your query.
Welcome to health care magic. I have gone through the details.

There is no possibility of transmission of HIV by massage, or by hand job.HIV is not transmitted by hand to penis contact or by skin to skin contact (breast contact), unless there is open wound or ulcer in both the persons.
I do not see any risk of HIV transmission with the modes mentioned.
You can allay fears of HIV.

You can get back for any clarification.

Hi Doc, I am not sure wether or not I have a open wound, the only thing I could remember was I didn't have a sexual contact with the positute. I mean I didn't have sexual contact means she kept her panty and pantyhose on all the time.
