Good plan to wait for the HIV test. There is an std forum for std info.

You are wasting your time and money testing before 28 days because that is too soon to get it to work. It will not be able to prove anything before 28.

Try to relax until 28 because there is nothing pointing towards you having HIV and there will not be any answers available until 28 so try to just forget it as much as possible until then.

Oral isn't a risk for HIV.  

If he penetrated you after removing the condom, you should probably test, even though it's low risk.  You can get a 4th generation test 28 days after the event, and it will be conclusive.  If you can't get a 4th generation test, then any test is conclusive at 90 days post-exposure.

Your question is unclear.  Did he penetrate you AFTER removing the condom?

You cant get HIV since he wore a condom. It doesn't matter what he did with the condom after he stopped having sex.
