1. There isnt a doctor in this forum, you need to post in the expert forum (requires payment)
2. She tested negative recently so the odds are heavily in your favor.
3. Get over the testing anxiety and go get tested 6 weeks out from the encounter. If you in fact were infected there is plenty of treatments you can get that will help you live a long life, but you have to find out if you have it first. Go get tested.
I'd agree that your chances of HIV infection are very slim, and 6 months after the event, if you've had no symptoms of anything, I wouldn't worry about anything.
If you have unprotected sex, its always a good idea to get tested for stds, but this particular event wouldn't overly worry me.
