Do i need further testing for HIV?

Hello and thanks in advance for reading. I had unprotected sex on multiple occasions with my ex (last time this happened was September 5th 2015). . In addition I also performed oral sex on a guy I started seeing shortly after (performed oral sex on him exactly 4 weeks and 4 days ago.  

Today I underwent two HIV home testing kits (finger prick test) , results were HIV negative. I also went to the hospital and took another test there (blood was drawn from my veins) and I tested negative for HIV. Do I need further testing in view of the fact that I performed oral sex on someone a month ago and as such wouldn't be covered by the HIV tests I took today? Also, do I need further testing for episodes of unprotected penetrative sex which occurred last on September 5th 2015?

I am a bit anxious and would really appreciate your advice.

Thank you very much.
