Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Had Unprotected Oral Sex With Prostitute. Having Sore Throat, Cold And Cough. Worried Of STD Infection?
Four weeks ago I was on a bachelor party and stupidly had an alcohol fuelled threesome with 2 prostitutes. This was in a legal European brothel that seemly offered sex on an industrial scale so I am sure these were two very high risk people.
I had sexual intercourse with both girls and wore a condom throughout. Also in an alcohol induced moment of madness, I performed unprotected oral sex on one of the girls including rimming.
I struggle to explain my behaviour except to say that I have a long standing problem with alcohol that causes me to make very poor decisions.
I feel a sense if deep shame, this is the first time I have had sex with prostitutes and the first time I have had sex outside of marriage.
I need to know how at risk I am of passing something onto my wife.
At the time the feelings of guilt and betrayal and the fear that I may have picked up an STD consumed my thoughts at all times of the day.
Recently I had been thinking about it less and less although I have made an appointment for a full STD checkup in early June.
However today I developed a sore throat which has gradually turned into a fever and cold symptoms. I have clogged up and my throat is on fire.
I am rarely ill so this developing 4 weeks after the incident has left me a nervous wreck. My mental health has deteriorated today as I am now convinced this is early symptoms of a serious STD such as HIV. I know you cannot physically help me but I need to know what your professional opinion on my likelihood of having HIV or another similarly serious STD.
it is not possible for me to say that u r hiv infected or not ,it only needs blood test for elisa or for early detection pcr.
but almost 60-90% of man when they get first time infection ,they develop flu like symptom with first 6 weeks of exposure ,symptoms incl sore throat, lyphadenopathy ,feverskin rash,it for 1 week thn it gradually fades away in next week.if u have gone through the same phase thn u might be infected ,and u capable of infecting other highly becoz at early stage infected person infect orther more rapidly .
but sore throat is very common condition without hiv
chances of infected whith hiv very less compare to the being infected with hept b
so i will suggest u for and blood test for hiv
it will clear all doubt
if u r lucky this time please do not repeat the same mistak further
