I met a 40-year-old lady in Dubai, and she ended up performing oral sex on me. I was wearing a condom, but at one point, I sucked on her left nipple for maybe a minute. I'm not sure about her HIV status; she seemed like a prostitute. I can't really remember if any breast discharge got into my mouth, but right after, I rinsed my mouth with water. Then, about five minutes later, I brushed my teeth with toothpaste and swallowed. I'm really concernedcould I have contracted HIV from this encounter? It's been 71 days now, and I had two different rapid tests, both came back negative. Should I be worried about getting infected?

View allOkay, so I recently got a tattoo on my back and ever since, I've been feeling a bit off. I'm having a fever, my neck feels really cramped, and I'm struggling with my breathing. I did get a tetanus shot last year, so I'm kind of worried and confused. Should I consider getting another tetanus vaccine, or could these symptoms be linked to something else? What do you think I should do?
It is important to ensure that your tetanus vaccination is up to date, especially if you have experienced symptoms that could be related to tetanus. Since you have received a tetanus vaccine last year, it is recommended to get a booster dose if it has been more than 5 years since your last tetanus-containing vaccine. You can get a booster dose of Tdap vaccine, which includes protection against tetanus, diphtheria, and pertussis. Please consult with your healthcare provider to confirm the timing and dosage of the vaccine based on your individual situation.

I'm a bit worried after looking at my throat ultrasound report. It mentions something about an infectious etiology like Koch's disease. Can you explain what that means? Is it something serious I should be concerned about?
the bacteria must be present in abundance in every case of the disease and must not be present in a healthy organism

Does taking antibiotics have any impact on an HIV test result? I've been a bit worried because I had to take antibiotics recently, and I'm scheduled for an HIV test soon. Just really hoping it won't mess up the results or anything like that.
No it doesnt affect the result
