Seroconversion/Actual Risk

[sdcigarpig]

I agree with BootmanLA, the symptoms that you are describing can cover a whole range of things.  Are you allergic to anything?  Or say your clothing was not rinsed all of the way through and some of the soap is just sitting on your skin all day long, mixing with the sweat from your body.  So you need to go and talk to your Doctor.  Ask them to do a full STI panel to check for all STI's that are out there.  While as a top it is rare that you can contract HIV with the percentages being very low, however the others you can catch, like say syph.

Appreciate this response and I know the odds of infection are very low but given the rash that has developed today (as pictured above) I feel certain I’ve been infected.  

Best thing is to get it checked and tested. Put your mind at ease.  Stress alone can cause rashes shingle outbreaks.
 

Let us know how you come out!
