Duo test at 4 weeks: This was a safe exposure, assuming the condom remained intact, and the chance you were infected was zero for practical purposes. If you feel you need testing anyway, have a duo ("4th generation") test at 4 weeks, when a negative result will be conclusive. In the future, always ask partners about HIV status, and no sex (even w/ condom) with positives not on treatment. Then no worries!
