experts plz help
ive been reading these forums and wanted to share my situation.
im married, and only have sexual intercourse with my wife. but in the last 2 years i frequent these seedy asian massage parlors where i get handjobs with oil. no other actions take place. I read handjobs are little risk for STD's, but nonetheless my last encounter has me very scared.
5 days after receiving a "4 hand" massage, i developed a fever that lasted for almost 6 days. I also had bad muscle aches in both inner theighs, and some diahhrea along with a very sore throat that travelled from the left side of my throat to the right. fever ranged from 99.8 to 102.2. advil would bring it down but it kept coming back.
i took at oraquick test at 75 days which came back negative, but to make time pass faster i took the test in my car, set it up, then drive home. dont know if moving fluid in the chamber can produce a false negative.
so experts, shall I test again? were my symptoms just a coincidence? Ive called my local HIV hotline 4 times and each time was told im worrying needlessly, but again, my week long sickness was really alarming that maybe I was going through ARS.
can someone please advise? Thank you.

u never had a risk, its good that u tested your self , but u need accpt two thing .first u were never at risk and accpt your test results ...
No Risk + Negative Result, forget about it!
You cannot catch HIV this way mate, simple as...
Your symptoms are not consistent at all, whatever they are from, they are not from HIV.
You really are okay buddy!

Ps - no, a moving vehicle would not affect a test result.

Conclusive test at 75 days? Everywhere I read ars symptoms are consistent with mine.
Could the oraquick produce a false negative while the vehicle was moving?
I'm so scared to have sex with my wife.

Your symptoms are not even close to ars and you have also conclusively tested to eliminate any previous exposures, you are so HIV Negative it's untrue.
Forget is and move on, you have no need to worry and did not put yourself nor your wife in ANY danger.
