HIV scare or not? Freaking out...

Hi Doc,
Recently whilst in Thailand I stupidly had sex with an African prostitute.  Been regretting it ever since.  
Before she touched me I put on a latex condom, she then started hand masturbating for a minute or so.  I added a water based lube and put my penis in her vagina and proceeded to have sex for a minute or so.  I realized she had lots of spots/marks on her skin and was quite skinny/unhealthy looking.  I immediately thought she may have aids/HIV (even though she says she didn’t) especially being from Africa.  
I pulled out and removed the condom.  I washed my hands and penis and put on a new condom.  She then performed hand masturbation for 5 minutes until climax.  Both condom were fine and showed no signs of breakage.
I am healthy and have no signs of any cuts or scores on my penis.  
Immediately after the situation, I panicked.  I went to the hospital to ask about PEP as I was concerned when I removed the condom with my hands.  The Doctor said my hands had no apparent cuts/wounds and PEP was not necessary.  
I have been reading that HIV from female to male via regular intercourse is rare (especially with a condom on).  Is this defiantly true?  
I was sick the next day (possibly through worry/anxiety).  But felt better 48 hours after.
I plan to get tested when I return home.  I have just been freaking out over the last couple of days.   Am I over worrying ? All facts indicate this girl probably had HIV. One thing for certain, will never do this again….any advice/help is much appreciated.

Thanks
Anth

You had almost no risk by wearing a condom and considering it was really intact. And yes, the sicknesses could have been caused by worry.

Almost no risk if the condom was really intact, even when she indeed suffered HIV.
