I wouldn't be worrying about hiv at this point. Just because you are unlucky enough to contract 1 std doesn't mean you had to have contracted more! chlamydia is far more common in the US than hiv is.

Go and be seen today or tomorrow and give a urine sample to them for testing and talk to your provider about what's been going on.  I recommend a full std screening since you had unprotected sex. You can test for some of the std's now and hiv and herpes will need to be done within the next month or two.
