I had unprotected sex with this girl last night and today I’ve had two chills and I’m tired do I have HIV? She said she wasn’t a hoe and got pissed when I asked if she had anything, she said she didn’t sleep around but loved sucking d\*\*k. What should I do?

Most infections take more than a few hours to manifest themselves, and HIV takes days to have any effects, so your chills are unlikely to be that. You might possibly have picked up one of the most common STDs (i.e., the common cold), but it can’t do any harm to go to an STD clinic and get yourself tested by people who know.

And carry your own protection in future.

You might have squeaked by with one chill, but two chills definitely rules out a military career.

Marry the girl, you fool. Quick, before someone else sweeps her up!

Let me offer the wild and crazy suggestion that you go talk to a doctor.

Did you just have oral sex? Chances of any STD are minimal and don’t even think about HIV. If there was real intercourse the chances are still minimal (especiallyfor HIV), but if you caught anything else you’ll probably notice in a few.

You really should google something like this, than you get actual experts or medical government agencies telling you all this.

A guy with a website and messageboard looked into this once.

Good luck with that.

The first response was the best. Other possibilities are that your symptoms are psychosomatic, or that they’re coincidental (i.e. you’re coming down with something that has nothing to do with your sexual encounter).

It takes longer for even a cold or flu to develop. Most likely, that’s what you have, and you probably gave it to her. But yeah, see a doctor.
