Had a massage 18 days ago where the masseuse's nasal discharge possibly containing blood got on me. No obvious cuts on my body. Afterward, I developed a sore throat lasting 14 days and got an RNA test 11 days post-massage, which was negative. Today, I noticed a red pimple-like mark on my back and am worried about HIV. Can you assess the risk and explain the symptoms?

I have had mild bulimia (vomiting a few times a year) for the past several years after 2 years of vomiting 4 or 5 times a week. After my last purge (the 16th of August), I've had throat tightness, heartburn, and a sore upper throat. I also have an issue where sometimes, my breath gets caught in my throat, and it feels like a flutter in my chest. Is there anything I can do about this, as my insurance coverage begins in a week and a half?
