HIV Risk

I have spoken with several doctors on this encounter but wanted to get the input of this forum.  I have recently had an encounter with a csw in early april.  After the encounter i noticed the presence of blood on the condom which had me very concerned.  There was brief genital to genital contact about 10-20 seconds with no penetration, but i am concerned because there may of been a scrape on the shaft of my penis that may have come in contact with her vagina.  I am really scared over this situation, i had no cuts that were bleeding.  When i spoke with the doctors i did not mention the possibility of the scrape.  Also i fairly certain that the tip of my penis never came in contact with her vagina but cant be certain.  The doctors asked me if i had any deep cuts which i did not.
She also performed unprotected oral on me then intercourse with a condom which was intact when we were finished.
I took a full std panel at 11days, will retake in a couple of weeks.  This panel included an RNA test which came back negative.  Reading all the post here on RNA testing i am wondering if this result actually means anything or if it should give me some comfort?
What is my risk?  Please advise as i am very concerened

Good news, you have zero risk for HIV and wasted your time testing.

HIV is instantly inactivated in saliva and it is also inactivated in air which means it can't infect from oral . So those are 2 reasons you had zero risk. Double zero risk.
No one in 40 years of history got HIV from oral.  Even with blood, lactation cuts, rashes, burns etc saliva and air do not allow inactivated virus to infect, so you had zero risk.
Only the head of your penis needs to be covered by the condom and when they break it is down the seam and hugely visible to anyone. Only sex risks are unprotected anal or vaginal which you didn't have. Everything you describe is classified as either air or oral contact or both, even if you think it wasn't.
Double zero= zero.

and your vaginal is classified as protected.


I should have  used the word penetrating before anal so reread that part.
Again thank you so much
Anxiousnomore, could you re read my post and let me know if anything changes in my risk if the person i was with was transgender post op?  I have a feeling that she was based on her being tall, deep voice and different.  Please advise
Reread the advice instead of posing endless variations of the same question.
