Are these symptoms of hiv?

Sore throat for a week, diaheria for a week, weight loss, had temperature for 1 night was sick then it went, pain in right armpit, aches and pains in muscles, green phlegm, chesty cough, shortness of breath. This all happened between 4 - 8 weeks after my risk. Had sex with escort with a condom but she sucked me (blow job) before hand. Tested neg at 35 days for hiv and std but pretty sure i'll be positive when i get my 12 week results. Is it normal to think this?? My partner is sick at moment with mouth ulcers, sore throat and a headache today. How long do headaches last when people have ARS? 1 week, 2 weeks? How can this happen to me. I'm 24 with my life ahead of me. I thought protection would stop hiv transmitting to me.

You could not get hiv from that situation . Oral no risk . Condom Protected intercousre Is NO RISK . Symptoms don't mean a thing . .  I would guess  a cold or flu is giving you those symptoms . Talk with your doc about your symptoms

IT is the cold and flu season right now . But from what you describe you have nothing to worry about . Just forget the whole thing and move on ....

You definatly did not get HIV from this incident. Relax, at your 12 week test you will be negative. It is cold season, all symptoms are much more common to colds and flus rather than HIV. In all likely hood you will be fine. Don't worry, if you pass the cold, that means it was just that, a cold

Had the burning tongue syndrome(startted fe weeks after possibleexposure)(tip of  the tongue has raised buds, which hurts with warm to water/hard food  or spicy food) ....on going for four months. Never in my life had experienced this before.

How long do headaches last when people have ARS? 1 week, 2 weeks? Is it the same situation with a ARS fever that can last 1 to 2 weeks?

Dont worry about those symptoms . Headache  or what ever else .. You can not catch HIV from the situation you described . Hiv symptoms are common in hundreds of other sickness'es or viruses . Practice safe sex and dont use IV drugs and you should  have no chance of acquiring HIV ..
