Rash/sore throat - scared about HIV

2017-11-03 23:41:03
I suffer from health anxiety and recently have managed to convince myself I have HIV. I know it's irrational because I have been sleeping with the same person for 9 months, we always use protection, and his parents do not have it. Last week I got a sore throat and I have developed three itchy spots/blotches on my upper arm in the last few days. Is there any legitimate reason for me to be afraid?
