Possible transmission of hiv
Hi Doc,
I'm basically dying of anxiety here as end of October I had high risk involvement with someone and the condom slipped somehow through the act and was only realised once we finished. I was on top and later noticed a cut on my penis. Last week I had an extremely sore throat and that led to my fear of contracting HIV. I got a test done (ECLIA) on 28th day that turned out negative however a week after that, now, I've developed non itchy rash on my chest and am very scared

Window period of HIV detection is 3 months.
Repeat the test after 90 days. If the test is NEGATIVE then also means FINALLY HIV NOT there and u can relax.
