Help needed!!!!

I am a 25 year old male who made a terrible mistake. I had unprotected vaginal sex with a prostitute. In the past 3 months i have had all the symptoms related to hiv. I had sore throat, an apisode of fever (3 days), my transaminase were elevated, i had a little coat of white in my tongue. I had a hiv duo test done at 8 weeks post exposure and it was negative. I had an antibody test 12 weeks post exposure and once again it was negative. My real concern is that after reading questions in the forum i found out that a weak imune system can delay seroconversion. I have read a lot and found out i have many symptoms of a weak immune system. I get really frecuent episodes of colds and sore throat, and i do suffer from respiratory and eye allergies. Do you think i am a case of delayed seroconversion because of this. Or can i believe my tests and be 100% sure that i did not contract hiv? I would really apreciate your quick response since i am very stressed out. How badly affected would the imune system have to be in oreder for it to delay seroconversion?

You do not have a weak immune system weak immune system means organ transplant, cancer nto lots of colds. Your test at 3 months is conclusive. No need to test anymore.

Why do you think i have to test at six months if everybody in the forum states 3 months is conclusive for all cases? you think my imune system is weak so that i should test at six months?

Can anyone else give me an opinion? teak, lizzie lou?
