About to pull out my own hair, HIV RISK

A month ago I slept with a girl with unknown HIV status, I used a condom and didn't even last but a minute before I pulled out and then pulled off the condom.  The catch was I didn't realize this until the lights came on, but she was on her period.  I'm afraid I had an HIV risk.   Two weeks later, once a day for a couple of days, I had diareaha and I've been afraid since that I need to get tested or I had a risk but I read that diareeaha is a symptom of HIV infection


HELP!!!

You never had a risk of contracting HIV and don't need testing.

Because she is on her period, this doesn't increase the risk of HIV. Having unprotected sex does increase the risk. If you have any worry get tested. A negative test result would be encouraging and then test again 3 months later. After the 3 month test is negative you have nothing to worry about.

What worries me, is like if something ran down inside the condom or something.  I mean, when I pulled it off, my well yeah was clean and it was like nothing ever happened, I mean the sexual encounter only was maybe 1-2 minutes anyways.  I don't know, I can't stop checking lymph nodes, temperature, wondering about diareaha.....I don't know what to do anymore.  I was tested recently non reactive and then after that BAM...what do I do? I hook up with a chick, and find out she was on her period man.  I mean i don't know if diareaha is a symptom or not, I haven't had a fever, sowllen nothing....  *cries*
