Unprotected Oral On Same Gender. Have Lack Of Appetite With Nausea. HIV Chances?
Hello.Two days ago I performed unprotected oral on another male. He ejaculated (or it was a precum, I don t know exactly), a bit in my mouth but I spit it out right away. The next morning I woke up tired and with lack of appetite . I ve tried to eat something, and I ve only eaten forcibly because I told myself I should eat. I haven t slept well that night or the night either. I also experience a bit of nausea . Is it possible to be infected with HIV and have so rapid symptoms, in 12 hours after the contact? Or it my be because I ve developed on obsession and paranoia that I might be infected and got into a depression?

Hi, welcome to HCM, I am Dr. Das
First of all, it is impossible to have so rapid symptoms.
So, Dont panic. If you suspect your partner to have HIV infection go to any general physician to have postexposure prophylaxis within 72 hrs. It significantly decreases the incidence of getting infected.
