Exposure help needed.

I Am a 19 years old Hetero.

The reason i need help is:

I Had sex with a girlfriend of mine that i found out was HIV+. It was protected- Oral-Vaginal-Anal.
But when we were finish i pulled my penis out and suddely i saw that the condom was not on my penis i forgot to hold on the condom when i pulled me out. Now i am like 100% sure that i got some of her fluids on my penis. since the first day of the expoure i have been in constantly angst-stress-dep. But like i startet with saying it was all safe until the condom went of when i got out of her vaginal.

Symptoms:

1-7 days Swolling problems difciulit to swoll my own salivia. headache. sweating ( Can stress-angst-dep made theese symptoms)?
7-14 days: Fever 1-2 day ( can stress-angst-dep made theese symptoms)?
14-21 days: 1 swollen lymfenode back of my head. ( can stress-angst-dep made theese symptoms)?
21-34 days: 1 more swollen lymfenode on the same side of the other lymfenode behind my head same area).

Other no i am fresh-fine-eating well- no white spot on my tounge- or all the other symptoms.

PT: Point that i have been angstly-Stree-Dep 24/7 i know it sounds crazy but its real!
I Begint to drink+smokeing to.

Testes:

30 Days (4 weeks) antibodi test- Negativ
40-41 days (6 weeks) antibodi test- Negativ
75-77 Days (11 weeks) antibodi test-Negativ

My Qustion is:

1: Can my symptoms be made of my Angst-Stress-Dep. I Was constantly angst-stressed.
2: How high is my risk?
3: How good are my testes and can i trust them? they were all negativ.
4: Should i take another test at 12 weeks mark.

Really need help!

IF YOU HAD AN EXPOSURE...i'd take that 11 weeks to the bank (if it were me).  3 months is conclusive but your 11 week test is not going to change.

it is NOT hiv that is causing the swollen lymph nodes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thx for the answers Lizzie and Teak-Sunny very very glad for all the answers... Lizzie yes i have he said they were swollen i got 2 swollen in the same area back of my head.. but my question is can stress-angst cause swollen lymfenode. all in all i have like 4 swollen lymfenode and 3 in the same area. around my ear and back of my head in the same side.

And how sure is a test taked after 11 weeks if i had a expoure.

Last question.

has your swollen lymph node been diagnosed by a doctor or yourself?  many, MANY things can cause a lymph node to swell.  a scratch can.

if you tested at 11 weeks...after a non risk situation...then you are good to go!!!!

NO IFS, ANDS, OR BUTS ABOUT IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You don't need testing and see your ENT for your ear problems. Unrelated to HIV.

You were never at risk. Loosing your condom on withdraw is not a risk. Next time hold onto it.
