Am I safe to move on?

I had only one time potential exposure in my life more then a year ago ( unprotected vaginal intercourse with a girl for less then a minute) I have tested several time (I guess more then 4 times) using Oraquick Home HIV1/2 kit all of them done after 3 months of my exposure. They all came back negative. After one year of my exposure I also tested at Planned Parenthood they administrated Oraquick Advanced kit Oral swab as well on me it came back negative as well. I never had any potential exposure after that incident. Last time I tested again 3 weeks ago with oraquick which put me almost 2 years after my potential exposure and I got the same result negative. I keep getting some weird symptoms like body aches and small tiny pimples or bumps under my armpit...

What should I do, I'm always stressed out and worry. Is it safe to move on. Or test again? Are my tests result conclusive?

Thank you.

Any antibody test done, anytime after 3 months of exposure is final and conclusive. Therefore you do not have HIV and can move on with your life normally. Lesson learned, " Next time, never ever unprotected penetrative sex with anyone, outside your mutually committed monogamous long term relationship"
