The test result is far more accurate than symptoms in judging possible HIV infection, and anyway ARS never causes only a single node to be enlarged or inflamed. And it sounds like you probably do not have an abnormal node anyway: this is too subtle to be significant or important. Self examination of lymph nodes is never a good idea and always unreliable. Stop trying and believe your test result.
