Assessment of risk and HIV symptoms.

Hello every one .
18 days ago I had  sexual intercourse with a prostitute whose HIV status unknown but it's the kind of uneducated ones and those who wander in the streets and bars . In other words , the cheap ones . So the intercourse was protected , I used a condom ,which did not slip or broke . But unfortunately at the end she removed it and performed oral sex on me(blow job) . She threw up on my penis and was unable to continue so she switched to handjob till I ejaculated . And I think her finger was bleeding .I did not insert my penis in her vegina after that .
After 3 days I felt a weird felling like tired and a little hot .this lasted only day and half .
After 14 days I started to experience very severe symptoms , loss of appetite , pain in my lymph nodes in the neck ,armpit and groin. Nodes in my armpit were visible . Moderate fever ,one not painful sore in my mouth, sore throat and find hard to swallow something. Muscles pain . These symptoms lasted for 3 days . And the 4 th day I felt a little better and I still not well . Now it has been 18 days since the incident.
My question is am I at risk ?
Are those HIV symptoms ?

The only risks for HIV in adults are:
1) Having unprotected anal or vaginal sex, or
2) sharing intravenous needles with IV drug users.

You cannot get HIV  from someone's mouth, or from someone's finger or hand, or from vomit - NO MATTER WHAT.

If you do not engage in any of the activities I mentioned above with someone HIV+ or whose HIV status is unknown to you, you will NEVER have to worry about getting HIV. There is no information you could add about this event that would make it a risk for HIV.

So u mean , I am safe regardless of the symptoms ?
Thank you that made fell better
Yes, you had no risk so symptoms you think you are having are unrelated. You also call her uneducated but you had sex with her which implies education does not matter. Just food for thought.
Uneducated in terms of sexual diseases . That's what I meant
My point is that you CHOSE her with these complaints and you are educated, no? Think about that.
