35 days after high risk event

I've had a risk event 34 days ago during unprotected anal sex, although the person claimed that he doesn't have HIV I am still kind of worried. I've had a rapid hiv blood test 19 days after the risk event and another Oraquick swab test 26 days after both came back as negative. Now I have another Oraquick kit to use, should I wait to use it at around the 6 weeks mark? What are the chances that I might be infected? Thanks

You should take 6 week test hiv duo/ combo test as your already 34 days gone .p24 antigen spikes up from 3-6 weeks .Tc

Hiv duo/ combo (p24 antigen / hiv 1/2 test ) should be taken at 4 weeks .it's 99 percent accurate .then take an 8 weeks post exposure test which most of the doctors say is conclusive but international window official guidelines is 12 weeks post exposure .oraquick is fda approved test but only genuine 12 weeks post exposure .try avoiding rapid test as it has tendency of false positive .always go for fourth gen test blood based lab tests .anal exposure is high risk exposure .but still if you can get your partner tested .it would give u peace of mind and surity

I don't really have any symptoms except some little ulcers in the mouth and some acne outbreaks on the chest.
