Is my hiv test conclusive

I did an hiv test at med lab after unprotected sex with an *****
And the result came out negative,, buh i have been experiencing symptoms that when
I googled them is that of hiv and that got me super worried
Eg: have notice painless lymph nodes all over , multiple ones in the groin area
One below my right ampit(been there since i was a kid )
Recently detected one below the left ampit (after extreme examination tho)
Two on below my jaw on bothe sides (only if tilt my head just right to be able to feel it )
One below my right ear (recently noticed and that ear is bad on hear with the left)
And i had rashes on both my hand a month ago or so
Now i just devoloped sore throat (4 month after possible exposure )

My question is with all these symptoms am having especially that of the lymph and sore throat
I my test done before still conclusive?
(Test used is hiv detetmine lot 53026k100).

Could it be another infection causing symptoms similar to that of hiv?

Yes even a flu swells lymph so I wouldn't be at all concerned about your self diagnosis guess with no medical experience.

What was your risk, and how long afterwards did you wait for testing and what kind of test did you do? 4th generation is conclusive at 28 days, btw.
