UG I messed up - Barebacked Babe at Flushing spa - I never BB!
Please help me decide if I should take Post Exposure Prophylaxis:
Truvada 200 mg (emtricitabine-tenofovir) plus Tivicay 50 mg (dolutegravir)
for 28 days to reduce likelihood of HIV illnesses. These meds have potentially serious side-effects.
-> Perhaps the meds are more dangerous than doing nothing in this case?
I'm a fairly healthy circumcised male in my 60s.
I had unprotected vaginal sex with a very busy Chinese babe for one hour on two occasions.
Twice before I was covered - she just got to me - Dongguan style.
Let's assume she has an HIV infection - no point asking.
It seems my chance of infection is about 0.10% to 0.05% per encounter -
i.e. 0.20% risk for two unprotected encounters...
The unprotected sessions included fellatio, cunnilingus and mutual analingus.
(% per Wikipedia STDs chart - BTW I'll deal with other potential STIs separately tomorrow).
The above Rx came from an RN at a clinic visit 8 hours ago; I see my primary care physician in 12 hours.
-> Need to start the meds by 11:30PM Tuesday to be in 72 hour window.
Comments please - thanks all!
