Am i infected?

hi guys!
Its my first time posting here. i am a heterosexual male from Singapore. I would like to know the chances of being infected by HIV from my exposure.  
1. Protected sex in September 2012 with a thai CSW (tested negative at 6eeks)
2. Handjob from a masseur (January)
3. Another handjob from a masseur (january)
4. Protected oral sex from masseur (February wore condom durex extra safe; did not break)
5. Protected oral sex, but performed UNPROTECTED cunnilingus on masseur. Lips were badly chapped due to accutane (April wore condom okamoto 003; did not break)
6. Protected oral sex from masseur and protected frottage.  Found 3 blobs of fluid on my penis shaft. could it be sweat or saliva? unsure? (April condom was Premier Extra safe.  Frottage wasn't really frottage, just happened that my penis touch her vagina with a condom on for 2 seconds.)

Point to note: Acts 2-6 NO VAGINAL NOR ANAL SEX AT ALL.
In addition, i had a elisa 3rd gen antibody finger prick test 1month post exposure number 5 and 3weeks post exposure number 6.

Please help me. i am pretty scared. especially exposure number 5 as my lips were chapped.

You never had a risk, which means you never needed a test...the test was pointless.

Accutane wouldn't affect an HIV test in someone who had a risk.  3 months would still be conclusive for someone who had a risk (which wasn't you)

Kindly move along.

Teak iI read online that accutane is somewhat immunosuppressive. Will that affect the 1 month post exposure test? Or my 3-7month post exposure results? Although I know that I do not need testing at all, I need to know the answer for the peace of mind

You never had an exposure and never had a reason to test.

Vance last point:
Does accutane(isotrotenoin), a hepatitis B vaccine, or a cholesterol blood test(just blood neon drawn) affect hiv results? Will it give a false negative?

Did you read what I wrote? You did not have any risks. Thus you don't need to test.

vance thanks so much for your reply. that was quick. so i test negative 1 month after my cunnlingus incident with chapped lips, and 3 weeks post  my protected oral sex risk.  Can i successfully get on with my life without worries? I am about to serve the army.  Should i test again 3 months after for exposures 5 and  6, or wait for the hiv blood test when enlisting in the army(next year july)? is my negative test at 1 month conclusive? my doc says it is ball parked from 90-95% accurate.
