HIV RASH??

Please could someone help me out here - I am really worried I have contracted HIV. A couple of months ago I had unprotected sex with a lady friend of mine (I know her so I wasn't really concerned about using a condom). Anyway what I am worried about is that I have just developed a sort of itchy, round spots (not raised) rash on the upper part of my back. Is this an early symptom of HIV? What does the rash look like? Where is it usually found? How soon does it start? I am really stressing so do you think this could be stress related instead? Thank you

Just really worried with all these flu symptoms I am feeling at the moment - sneezing, head cold, sweating at nights and now two hard lumps on the top of my hard palate.

Thank you so much for your trouble and comments - you always manage to put me at ease.  No she's not a drug user and I am actually going to propose to her this weekend - was just a little concerned with the 'new' symptoms I've been having lately but I guess it's nothing but the flu.
