Am I at risk?

I am a young male, who had 2 encounters with other males.  Last Monday I received fellatio, unprotected.  I've been doing some reading and I know I'm at no risk for that.  

That following Thursday, I had another encounter.  I don't think i did anything that put me at risk, but I'm not sure.  I did some naked grinding, where my the tip of my penis was touching his, er, hole.  I don't think I penetrated him unprotected, (I would have known, right?), even though he wanted to.  the grinding went on for a while.  

In all honesty I wouldn't be so worried if he hadn't told me to play unprotected and the fact that starting Sunday, following this encounter, I got a sore throat which has progressively gotten worse.  No fever, no rash, minor soreness in body, though I think that's from a strenuous workout.

Am I at risk for hiv?

Thank you for your help!

Test for other more common STD,s,but testing for hiv is not required at all because you never had a risk with the activities you engaged in.Your symptoms have nothing to do with hiv but some other condition.Everyone gets a sore throat and body aches from time to time.All the best.

From what I have read in this forum....there was no penetrative anal..you would have known. Therefore you were not at risk for HIV.
