Seems the same to me, only my guess is the second would be far more reassuring.
I'll add that I don't think any HIV test will be positive 3 days after contact.

I didn't treat her like she was stupid, and I didn't provide her with a scenario where she was run over by a bus while she was crying about a broken condom. You have to bear in mind that your reaction to something is different than the average person because you often don't give a shit. If I was your doctor, knowing you, I'd be totally blunt with everything and not spare your feelings one bit because that's who you are. If you had cancer, you wouldn't want me dancing around it for a minute in a desperate attempt to soften the blow of the news.
Dr. Willavel to Ustwo: "You've got cancer on your left nut. No, no... on YOUR left. My right. We're going to need to lob it off in the next month, so keep your schedule open."
Dr. Willravel to the average man: "I'm very sorry to have to tell you this, but the tests have come back positive for testicular cancer. Don't worry, we will only need to remove one testicle if we do this fast, and there are prosthetic testicles that can take the place of the testicle we're removing. Hopefully your quality of life will not change after we've finished. You can still have kids and, barring any complications, you should still be able to be sexually active after you heal. You're going to make it through this."
