ARS Symptoms?

About 4 weeks ago, I had protected oral sex at a really sketchy massage parlour. About two weeks later, my symptoms began. I have been experiencing some really bad muscle/joing stinging and throbbing periodically. It hits me quickly in some of my joints/muscles and then disappears. I have never experienced this before so it is definitely new. What is muscle pain for ARS like? I also have headaches and my lymph nodes in my neck are sore. My groin and stomach have consistent cramping and discomfort as well. I also have a really weird sore throat. It's is dry and causes my cough to be really dry as well. Seems to be some flem getting trapped in there as well. I have not had any fever at all yet. Any thoughts? I got tested for the 7 major STD's at 3 weeks and everything came back negative. I really appreciate any insight you can offer.
