Scared of HIV: Swalllowed Nipple secreation and French Kiss

I am very uch scared. I am a healthy(hope so) young man at  age 31. I have
been diagnosed with Shingles and my dr. said that it is a sign that my immune
system is low. It is same virus that caused me chicken pox (when i was a kid)
and this latent virus is now somehow activated.
I had a protected sex with two prostitutes an year ago but I swallowed
secreations from nipple squeeze and also had french kiss with one of them.
I had developed fever and sore throat within 2 weeks.
I had informed my doctor about this at that time but he ruled out the possibility of STD that time and rather had put me on antibacterial.  After the
culture bacterial infection( stepXXXX..., dont remeber the exact name)  was confirmed. Then 6 months later I noticed some
twitching on the right side of my uppler lip. I went to see a neurologist and
also told him about the incident but he also ruled out the STD possibility(
One govt. doctor had also rejected the possibility of STD at that time) .
After some weeks the twithching went off on its on( not with the medication).
And now I have developed shingles. I dont have had any fever or major Cold in
the recent past that could have caused my immune to go down causing the shingles. But yes it is a winter season here and my son (3 yr old) just had a flu.
I am very scared as if my shingles could be a sign of any STD infection I
might have been infected with due to Nipple secreation or Kiss.
Please help me what should I do? Please Please
The Shingle Rashes are on the side of my stomach and few bomps on the back.

Shingles is caused by the chicken pox virus. Nipple suck and kissing are not risk of transmitting HIV.
