This is a completely normal temperature - it corresponds to 37.2 C.

See:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normal_human_body_temperature#Core_temperature

Besides, you can never use symptoms to tell if you have HIV. Even among people who have ALL the symptoms (you don't have a single) only a minority turns out to have HIV. Body temperature goes up and down during the day based on activity level, food consumption, time-of-day, stress, anxiety. Furhter, the slighest razor cut can cause a swollen lymph node and a higher body temperature than usual. Most people just don't notice since they don't go around measuring the temperature all the time.
