is this anxiety or do i have something else.

since june of 2013, i have had 6 women give me unprotected oral sex with ejaculation in their mouth most of these acts were under 45 seconds, they were not prostitutes. I did finger most of these women and i have cuts from eczema on my fingers, not actively bleeding though. I did NOT have vaginal or anal sex with them.  All the women confirmed they were HIV negative, most got the test done after the incident of oral sex with them. In middle of may 2014 i started to experience frequent urination doctor put me on ciproflaxcin and then doxycycline, so got scared and took a oraquick test which was negative. Since then i have just been feeling all types of symptoms.  The frequent urination is still there, anal itching, back of the tongue has whiteness(maybe its thrush), sometimes pain after sex, low libido, back hurts and lately just have been lightheaded like dizzy. I have no idea what's going on, I always have the HIV in my mind, thinking of scenarios where the test i took may have been wrong or if i didn't do it right, or some other reason.

All of your symptoms and especially the dizziness and the frequent urination are clasical symptoms of anxiety! That includes neck and back pain it could very possibly be psychosomatic symptoms caused by your anxiety. I can assure you that I also had dizziness and a very bad case of freuquent urination.I am talking about using the bathroom 8 times at a night.I ended up negative.Symptoms does not mean anything especially when you have a negative reasult.You don't have any symptom that it points at any infection of any kind I think.Instead all your symptoms seems to be anxiety related.I am certainly not a doctor but I had my share of axniety and anxiety symptoms.

If you had picked something up then your test would have been positive.How could you have hiv with a negative test?

its just these random symptoms that keep messing with my mind i would love nothing more to stop thinking about it since i am in a committed relationship. But the frequent urination, head dizziness, anal itching, neck and back pain, keeps leading me to believe i picked up something from getting a **.
