Q: Mono or hiv ?

okay just to say, i've been sexually active for about 3 years now. I've hardly ever used a condom. I just always hated the way they felt and i never thought id need them. That's stupid i know. RECENTLY, about two weeks ago. I've been involved with a new girlfriend. I was slightly sick sometime around that time, not sure exactly when. I'm concerned because i've had very slight cases of just about every symptom i've read about HIV. Only the nodes under my chin were swollen, for about 2 days. Nowhere else on my body. Just this week i've noticed the very middle of my chest is itching, there are only tiny tiny little bumps. I scratched them and they are more like a few tiny scabs. I have a few things that feel like pimples that are closer to my jaw line on my neck. Okay, so, my question is. Could these be due to mono? Because i know for a fact i was introduced to that. I know the only way is to get tested but i'm so worried and i don't even really know how to go about it.

Let me tell you...AIDS feels 100000 times worse than not wearing a condom feels good.Trust me.
You need to get tested for all STDS...all of them.What you describe could be a number of things including sexually transmitted diseases such as HIV. Get tested ASAP and NEVER have unprotected sex.I know it feels a hell of a lot better with no condom but I can tell you first hand,that good feeling is not worth a life time of having to take meds and doctor visits...good luck.Get tested.Dont have unprotected sex.remember this warning.Have all the sex you want but wrap that thing before entering or this is the result..
