Chills + Leg ankle/knee pain + Head Ache

Hello,
5 days after exposure i developed Chills each night. These chills caused leg pain which subsequently turned into ankles and elbows pain. 8 days after exposure, i had developed headache, which lasted 5 days.
No FEVER No RASH though.

I have had unprotected exposure with a sex worker.

I got P24 antigen II + Ag/Ab Combo AVDVIA Seimens done at "Day + 13":
Both are negative.

Is what i am seeing a PRIMARY HIV INFECTION ?
More importantly, please answer this too: I havent seen chills as symptoms of early hiv, so what do they signify without a fever and with aches.
