A member asked:

I gave oral sex to this guy about a month ago. i did not swallow nor had sores in my mouth. i have shingles now, does it mean i'm hiv positive?

Shingles: Is not likely related to oral sex one month ago. If you are worried about hiv, get tested!

No: Shingles are a late result of the chicken pox virus. So if this is truly shingles, then it is not hiv. However, unprotected oral sex can lead to sexually transmitted diseases. You should see a doctor for further evaluation.
