uick Question concerning receiving oral sex

Before I ask, this is my first time on here and I have read many responses and I thank all of the doctors who have taken the time to answer others and my problems.    

My question is this, I am a male and I receieved unprotected oral sex from a male.   I have genital herpes and I was curious if my chances of getting hiv went up.  I have read that if you are getting oral sex, you have nothing to worry about for hiv.   The session lasted maybe 3 minutes tops.  

Secondly,  if I need a test, how soon should I get the test to make sure its the most accurate.

I'm not sure what else to provide here besides that was the only time I've ever done this and will never do again.

So the herpes would not increase my chances if at all?
