concerned

hi i have a question for you experts. about a month ago i had unprotected sex with my girlfriend. weve been talking for about 6 months. she is pregnant. "not my kid" but when i met her she was pregnant by her ex. she got tested for hiv during her pregnancy and it was negative. a month after we had sex i started having issues. i feel a constant pain in my lower right abdomen. like in my intestinal area. ive had hemorrhoids and rectal bleeding and a change in bowel habits. that started a few month ago. this intestinal pain i have started almost a week ago. those are my only sympton and im not really sure what is going on. does these sound hiv related? i know symtoms dont mean anything but based on typical hiv symptoms does mine sound like a serious concern? also i took a hiv test in october and it was negative.

Since you noted that symptoms don't mean anything you don't need an answer to the fact you are wasting your time studying "symptoms."
The ONLY thing you need to figure is how long was her test after her last sex with her BF - which is the only thing you omitted, so please provide.  
If she didn't wait long enough she could have HIV so in that case, it doesn't prove anything that you take tests because she can pass it on to you at any time down the road. If it was long enough to be conclusive, she couldn't have HIV.

Someone here will comment on test times or you can find their frequent "window period"  post if you hunt around. Once I see it again I am putting it in my journal for future reference.
