I made a huge mistake, tell me if I should be as worried as I am

Hi, Last Friday, one week ago I got really drunk and ended up having unprotected sex with a complete stranger.  I have already ordered two home testing kits for hiv which i plan on using soon.  I know nothing about this guy and I hardly remember a thing other than we had unprotected vaginal intercourse and I think he tried to have anal sex but it hurt and I told him to stop.  I have never done anything like this before and I'll never do it again.  I am worried sick, I can't sleep or eat or focus.  I think I am making myself sick with worry, what are my chances of having HIV, should I be this worried?  Any thoughts would be appreciated

You are at risk and must be tested in three month's time.Next time use a condom. Always have at least two in you purse at all times. Put it on yourself. I don't trust any body's condoms but my own.
I have a story of mine to go with last statement.But the self proclaimed king of the forum doesn't like my stories You can't be too careful girl. Good luck.

You put yourself at risk and the only way to know your status is by testing. Test at 3 months to get a conclusive test result.

Low chances, in the same range as being hit by a lightning.
Get tested 3 months after the incident and move on.  Don't lose sleep over it.
