PLEASE HELP ME OUT

Hi, Doctor, i talked to you before about this issue that i got my result back after 15 weeks which is negative, the brief question is that, had unprotected sex with a woman only just one time on 27th July but we both did not ejaculate its was just 2 mints sex, i first time tested on 10/01/2010 which was negative. after that exposure i felt all symptoms and still i am feeling symptoms to date. i tested second time on 11/06/2010 almost 15 weeks after that incident(my both tests were Hiv 1 Home ACCESS Test. my result after 15 weeks that is negative. My question is that (1)what is actually that window period (2) does not test after 15 weeks conclusive? do i need further test? (3) what is compromised immune system/weak immune system? (4) does  compromised immune system/weak immune system delay the detection of Antibody? (5) does three months enough for the test? i heard that some times it may take 6 months to detect antibody in the blood. is this correct? i never got sick in my whole like i had never been on treatments.

lastly, i am feeling symptoms like pain under arms, some times headack and i am losing weight.i am very disturbed right now please guide me

4 weeks to 3 months and you tested conclusively negative outside the window period. Your symptoms have nothing to do with HIV, if they concern you see your doctor.
