Hello
You had PROTECTED sex with few sex workers .
Oral sex also .
Now fever , cough , tiredness , cold .
If full protection taken in sexual intercourse there is very less chance of getting HIV infection .
However, keep few things in your brain that condom should not rupture , penis don't touch ( particularly tip of penis or glans i.e. urethral opening ) cervical secretions and vaginal secretions .
Now about oral sex:Although HIV can be isolated typically in the low titers from the saliva of a small proportion of infected individuals , there is no convincing evidence that saliva can transmit HIV through oral sex ( but it is not 100 % safe )because less than 0.09 to 0.3 % can get HIV infection with oral sex.
Now thing is gone so get in P 24 rapid nucleic acid amplification test as early as possible .
Antibodies to HIV begin to appear in HIV infected patient within 2 weeks of infection ( if ).
Since you are having few symptoms resembling HIV ( acute infection ), so I recommend you consult a physician and get his opinion regarding flu type symptoms.
Hoe this will help you.
