condom break

hi...i started off with protected sex with a CSW, but the condom broke just before i came inside her, dint even have a chance to change the condom cos i already came inside her. started freaking out when low grade fever started off after 10 days, acoompanied by a rash on my chest that lasted a few hours and came back again the next day....for peace of mind i tested at 40 days after the incident by HIV DUO( AG/AB+P24AG) which came negative.....but still really freaking out cos there is another 50 days left in the whole of 90 days for the antibodies to develop......am really frustrated with myself, terribly disgusted at my ignorance regarding hiv transmission....pls suggest me...

3 months is when you can obtain a conclusive negative test result.

i called that female and confronted her, then she accepted the truth that she is on hiv medication for the last one year, which means she is already positive....my concern is how likely is it that my 40 days negative result will turn up positive by the end of 90 days ?? I also tested at 4 weeks after the incident with HIV DUO if at all it might help picking up antigen earlier if i was infected, but it was negative.....iam in a wierd trans now, loosing myself with this tension....also is it true that each individual is different in devloping antibodies, and not all develop detectable antibodies by 6 weeks, 2 days short...pls help buddy.

to make you feel better, not everyone has hiv,
might not get infected by single exposure
your symptoms might be due to anxiety
and you had a 40 day negative test which is a good indication of your status

test again at 3 mths for a conclusive result
