HIV Or Sinus Infection?


This is my first time posting a question. A year ago I had an incident with a female where I fingered her and sucked on her breast for about 4-5 min鈥檚. We didn鈥檛 have sex. I鈥檓 not sure if I washed my hands after the incident though. Could it be possible I wiped my hands on my face or eyes and got HIV that way? She didn鈥檛 bleed, just cummed I believe. I鈥檓 still a virgin, don鈥檛 use needles. I do master bate daily however. Recently I鈥檝e been getting really bad headaches and with these headaches I feel lightheaded. My left arm was lighter than my right arm, and my face keeps keep鈥檚 feeling sort of lighter than it usually does. I also have a stuffy nose and a warm head when the headaches come on. I can鈥檛 tell if I have a swollen lymph gland on my armpit or is it just excess fat. I don鈥檛 have a rash, unusual weight loss and night sweats. Could the symptoms I鈥檝e been describing be because of HIV or sinus infection? I don鈥檛 want to tell my parents because they might think of me differently.

Im not sure if the girl was HIV + but I know she had a lot of sex partners before but she told me they used a condom (im not sure if I can trut her). If I had HIV would the symptoms come like a month after it happend last year or now? I just did some more reading. Is it true that HIV dies 10-30 seconds outside of the body? If so that would eliminate the risk of me getting it from rubbing my eyes if I didnt wash my hands? Also it isnt possible for me to get it from my fingernails is it? As for the lump on my right arm its not direclty in the arm pit, its like right where the shoulder connects my chest and my arm, so Its not a swollen lymph gland correct? Thankyou so much for the answers so far.

You seem to be "panicquing" for very little. Rest assured, the HIV virus is not transmitted so easely! But given your actual discomfort, I would strongly suggest you visit a doctor, and if need be, take a (confidential) HIV test to be re-assured. You can also get a lot of informations on HIV/Aids by viviting the following website:

www.aids.about.com

Good luck and take care of yourself!

Your questions would be better answered by a doctor, Go and see one at your earliest opportunity.
If I were you I would do this sooner rather than later.

Was the girl HIV? I am not a doctor, but I do not think it is as easy to contract it from girls as vs girls from boys. I would venture to guess it is not HIV. It could be sinus. I have sinus problems and feel light headed at times. You could have symptoms from worrying about this and that could contribute to your headaches. You are obviously pretty concerned to have put this on here. You know your parents were young once too, and may not react the way you expect. It is hard to approach subjects sometimes, but they want you to come to them, and after the talk you may feel better. When my son was young (teenager - early 20's) there was nothing he could not tell me. I might not always agree, but I listened objectively and gave him the best advise i could. Parents are suppose to be their for their kids, it is what they do. Establish the trust between you & them and become more worry free.

I seriously doubt that this was caused by anything that you did with the girl. Do yourself a favor, talk to your parent/s about going to the doctor to get a checkup. I also would not take advice from people who cannot spell.

i think you have a sinus infection or you're just paranoid

you probably have a cold or a inner ear infection take care drink lots of water and juices

i am not sure, but you need to get checked out and becareful
