Received oral sex from prostitute

I recently gave oral sex and received oral sex from a transsexual prostitute. No ejaculation in the mouth. Anal sex was protected. What are my chances that I contracted an STI? I'm afraid of HIV in particular.

You had no risk of HIV and are so safe that you don't need to test.  
HIV is instantly inactivated in air and also in saliva which means it is effectively dead so it can't infect from touching or oral activities. It doesn't matter if you and they were actively bleeding or had cuts at the time either because the HIV is effectively dead.  
Only adult risks are unprotected penetrating vaginal or anal sex or sharing needles that you inject with but you didn't do that so you had no risk. This sentence is all you need to know to protect yourself against HIV.
Even with blood, lactation, cuts, rashes, burns, etc the air or the saliva does not allow inactivated virus to infect from touching or oral activities. The above HIV science is 40 years old and very well established so nothing you can add will make your situation a risk.
No one got HIV from touching or oral activities in 40 years of HIV history, so likely no one will in the next 40 years of your life either.
You can't get HIV when you use a condom either.
