After condom protected sex, really no testing at all was necessary. And it never takes longer than 6 weeks to develop a positive HIV test. Your 6 week HIV result was conclusive; all others after that were wasted time and money. Don't have any more HIV or STD tests.

You did not get HIV from this encounter, however, HIV is only one of the STDs. A condom may not protect against HPV, Herpes, LGV, syphilis, pubic lice etc. It would be prudent to see your doctor for an evaluation.
