scared for hiv infection

hi all..
i am new to thei forum..i red many posts here..and it is really helping people

i had a exposure with a prostitute in india
i think as a prostitute she must have hiv..
i didnt use the condom properly at that time...it was loose and had air inside it...and didnt cover whole penis...
i think it may have hole in it(i.e. defective)
so ,my question is it it is 8 weeks now after exposure and i had skin rashes at 5th week and some muscle pain..

i am not stressed but i think it may be hiv
i had weight loss..
sometimes headache

but no fever,or fatigue,or Diarrhea

please tell me whether is it HIV symptoms??

No, if your condom was defective it would be split wide open.
