Hi,
just over 4 weeks ago I was very drunk and
ended up having sex with a female sex
worker, I cant remember that much about it
but I am very concerned that it may have
been unprotected, I remember saying that I
wanted a condom on and she said it was on
I took her word for it.
But im still not convinced that we did use
one I have a horrible feeling we didn't
because I cant recall removing it
afterwards it was very dark so icouldn't
really see any way.
2 weeks later I developed a chest
infection but didn't think anything of
this as everyone else in my house had it,
the chest infection went after a week but
since then I have been left feeling achy
weak sweating at night.
Im very worried taht I may have caught
something and it could be hiv,nobody else
in the house has the same symptoms.
I realise I was stupid and have never done
anything like that before and doubt if I
will again.

Symptoms don't mean a thing when it comes
to hiv. Since you don't know if a condom
was used or not test 13 week past your
last possible exposure.

It is more than likely that a sex worker
would use a condom for her own
protection.
But yes, since this situation is
uncertain, test at 13 weeks.
