Get tested: If you had any potential exposure to HIV, the only way to know is to get tested and if the result is negative, repeat the test in 6 months. Consult this site for more info, http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/hiv-aids/basics/symptoms/CON-20013732

Get tested!: There are very very reliable rapid testing kits available OTC. Many places offer free HIV testing (as I do in my office) with high sensitivity and specificity. You can also just go to your doctor if you have insurance and get the routine testing. In any case, if you think you may be at risk get tested soon. Always use condoms..there are more STD's out there besides HIV to worry about.
