advice?

in one week it will be 3 months since i had unprotected sex with a guy i worked with twice.
I got tested at 4 weeks and it came out negative,i know that it was too early to test. I havent had any major symptoms, i had a minor cold recently runny nose and a mild sore throat. Recently i developed a small bump under my chin which doesnt appear to lymph node, but im not sure, i had a friend who was a nurse check out my lymph nodes and everythign was good, however this morning i woke up and i had what i think is a swollen lymph node, could it be because ive been poking at them? and if they were swollen would they actually be noticable?
Im sorry for bothering you im just very concerned and im about to be married, so i dont know what to do, i tried talking to the guy but he will not answer my messages but the last time we spoke he said he had nothing and was tested last summer, he is a wrestling coach and does MMA fighting on the side, so i think he would have be tested for something like that?
i go to get tested on wednesday, im freaking out

if someone experiences ars symptoms...they come at 2-4 weeks after infection...not 3 months.

the only way to know your status is testing.

I have been experiencing neck pains, which I assume are lymph nodes and a sore throat, beginning 7 weeks and 1 day after a possible exposure. Is it crazy to worry about this being related to ARS since it's beyond the 2-4 week window?

It's not crazy to worry, but I would take LizzieLou's advice in her previous post - ARS symptoms typically develop within 14-28 days post exposure, not the 7 weeks you mention.

I would test at the 3 months post exposure mark to gain a conclusive result

So at 3 months if i have "symptoms" they are not ars?

[Teak]

No they would not be ARS.

i got tested, get my results on tuesday...the lady used the orasure kit, the one where you put a stick in your mouth....thats a reliable test right?

Yes this is a reliable test, if you are testing near to the 12 week mark then this will be a reliable result.
