Insertive oral sex and possible ars symtoms

Hi about 6 weeks ago i had recvieed a blowjob from a girl of unknown status, it lasted only about a minute or so, soon after I stared stressing out super bad and I started looking up hiv symptoms and everything anyway about 4 days after I started to get a very dry mouth possibly caused by stress but at the time I didn't think stress could cause anything. Then about 2 days after that I woke up with a runny nose and eyes and also my chest kinds hurt I also had shortness of breath and when I would breath in or our hard you would he here a weezing sound so I took allgeries medicine and went to sleep I woke up again and found I had a white kinda hairy tongue wich scared the hell out of me because I heard that was a sigh of early hiv. I am unsure if I had a fever because I didint have a headache, sore throat, rash, chills, or night sweats. But I was pretty tired, keep in mind I have been super stressed out and having anxity attacks that whole week because I've been so scared. I started to calm down a little bit and the symptoms started to go away after about 4 to 5 days. Other than sneezing and my toungh issues.
Anyway here are my questions

1.)Can i get hiv from receiving a blowjob?
2.) Can stress and axcity cause all these kinda problems
3.) What's you opinion on the white kinda hairy tongue is this a sigh of ars or is it from severe stress and axcity and dry mouth from my stress?
4.) Are these accully ars symtoms
5.) Because i didn't have a sore throat, headache, chills, or night sweats do you think I did not even have a fever
6.) Are these accully even ars symtoms.
And last but not least, if you were me would you even test for hiv or just let it go?

You had no risk and any HIV test would be a waste of time.

HIV is instantly inactivated in air and also in saliva which means it is effectively dead so it can't infect from touching, external rubbing or oral activities. It doesn't matter if you and they were actively bleeding or had cuts at the time either because the HIV is effectively dead.

Only adult risks are the following:
1. unprotected penetrating vaginal
2. unprotected penetrating anal sex
3. sharing needles that you inject with. Knowing these 3 are all you need to know to protect yourself against HIV. Your situation is a long way from any of these 3.
Even with blood, lactation, cuts, rashes, burns, etc the air or the saliva does not allow inactivated virus to infect from touching, external rubbing or oral activities. The above HIV science is 40 years old and very well established so there is no detail that you can add that will make any of your encounter a risk for HIV.  No one in 40 years of HIV history got HIV from the situation you are concerned about so it is unlikely that it will happen in the next 40 of your lifetime either.
People cough on your lips and door knobs so cold and sore throat are to be expected at any time. Your self diagnosed tongue problem may have always existed, but see your doc or dentist if you think it is a problem.
The road to peace is to sotp Googling useless HIV symptoms that can't prove anything and examining your body cold turkey

Thankyou for answering it defentley helps.  a few more questions tho lol
1.) Why does the cdc say 1/20000 chance if they know that is wrong. They never seem to give a straight answer to anything.and they just scares the hell out of people for no reason
2.) Do you ussally get people a lot that had a low or zero risk exposure and get symtoms like mine Beacause of severe stress?
You are trying to connect your guess that you have HIV with your cold then thinking that you have proven something.  It is unscientific to try to match your situation with other people's other than to say no one who has posted about their ARS here has ever had it, so that gives you an idea of how many people can be wrong..

The expert doctors that we rely on say oral is zero risk but some sites use theoretical risks that haven't manifested in 40 years so reread about the 40 in the initial advice.
When I say none have ever had it, I mean that no one ever posted here later and said they tested positive, no matter how many posts they made claiming they were sure they had ArS before their test.
Thanks you so much, I'll stop googling medical symptoms and just get on with life. I defentley learned a lot from this lesson, stress and axcity sucks lol I never new so much stress could cause problems.
