Come back and report your test results.  We don't discuss symptoms because they are NEVER a reliable indicator of HIV status.  Only a test will tell you your status.

We can't keep going round and round with you, all it does is fuel your anxiety.  There is nothing more we can tell you at this point.  Get tested when it is appropriate.

In addition symptoms of HIV do not come sequentially then come all at once and go all at once, day 4 is waaaayyyy too early what you suggest is actually scientifically impossible.

The likelihood that you became infected with HIV as the top of a broken condom incident is highly unlikely.  

Your symptoms are irrelevant to be honest as the symptoms of HIV are the same as 100's of other much more common things like the common cold and flu!

If your symptoms are due to HIV then you will test positive or indeterminant shortly after them. I suspect however, that they are not.

Symptoms don't start at 1 week. And all the symptoms you list are a direct result of anxiety from the situation.
