Be careful with online searching about health problems that concern you. Despite what you may have seen online, coated tongue usually isn't thrush, and is common with many minor medical conditions, perhaps including cigaret smoking. It is not a sign of HIV, and your test results are conclusive proof you do not have HIV.
