CSW Visit

Hi There, I'm a 34 old male living in Sydney Australia and 4 weeeks ago I visited a CSW at a legal brothel.  We performed protected sex but I also fingered the sex worker.  Normally I wouldn't stress but the last 3 weeks I have been experiencing Joint Pains, Soar throat and neck, soar groin and underarms.  Now I'm starting to think that maybe the condom broke and  I didn't notice. I did noice however I had some skin missing from the finger but no bleeding that I can recall. I know that symptoms arn't everything but I just can't convince myself that the pains are just coinsidance.  What are the chances that I could get HIV from this once off encounter?  Your help is greatly appreciated.

Had you had a condom failure you would have know without a doubt. Fingering is not a risk of contracting HIV.
