Acute lymphonepaty - hiv?

I am working in Luanda, Angola, a big business capital with many diseases and bacterias. But I made the mistake of researching and HIV virus acute infection. In March 2010 I noticed my left armpit was
sore and stayed that way for 2 days with a sense of vision (double and cloudy), malaise and dizziness. After inspecting the armipt by the touch, i did not noticed lumps (i did touch them many times). Even without a lump, is considered lymphonepaty? Past 7 days, after going out for a night out of with my friends i noticed that i was with pain, this time on the right armpit, it passed away when i woke up.

On 20 January 2011 the pain return on the left armpit, but now with a big lump,sore and no definition of a gland, but like a flash of several. I also felt a few stings in the neck area and the groin area, but without lump ... can be considered generalized lynphonepaty? In this period (about 8 moths) i did not have flu symptoms like fever, pharyngitis, night sweats. I only have sometimes diarrhea, but only for a few hours,but here it is usuall, because of the water or food we eat. Even only with the increase of located glands can be hiv?

I did not have or had cuts on the skin, only moskitoes bites, usual on this tropical country. But i have two lumps on the arm, hard, they are there for years, but i used to workout at the gym and i thought i can be from the excessive workout, but they are still here.

Well, before March 2010 i had a risky encounter with a girl...but i used condom, when we step aside, the condom released from my penis, but i think it was intact, i went to the bathroom then washed my penis, later, about 7 days, i was with another girl again using condom, but at the end about 1 hour i felt a terrible itch sensation in my skin. A week later the lynphonepaty started under my armpit. But, In the past 10 months...none risky situation...i started dating with my girlfriend...If it is Hiv, the lynphonepaty should not be one month after the infection? Why it appears isolated 10 months later on the same armpit if it is the disease?...I never have/had sympthoms whatsoever fever, rash, vomiting (vomiting only after lots of alcool :D)...
