Hypochondriac or HIV symptoms?

Hello, I am a 20 year old male. Recently I've been experiencing some very strange symptoms

The last few days(this has been going on for roughly 2 weeks non stop.) I've still been experiencing almost debilitating nerve pain and tingling all over body with deep chest pain and pelvic/prostate/groin pain along with heavy fatigue, body aches and blurred vision with no appetite and diarrhea. The last doctor I've seen only said that I may have some type of 'Viral Infection'. And all blood and urine tests have came out normal, I've also had a CT scan of my head and chest which were also normal. I've also been diagnosed with hypochondria by the ER several times, I'm not believing that though. Could this all be anxiety related for absolutely no reason at all? Could this be HIV or some other autoimmune disease?

I really feel like I'm being misdiagnosed here, has anyone experienced something similar? Could anyone give me suggestions as to what I should do? Please help! Serious replies only please!

I'm not entirely sure. Could these be symptoms of something along those lines?

What was your possible exposure?

Because most of my symptoms match to possible HIV symptoms and I may have had a possible exposure a month or so ago. I'm actually waiting on those results to come back.
