Hiv 1 type O

Hi Doc.
In dec 2011 I inserted finger into a csw vagina and french kissed her breasts. I observed her vag had a foul odour and i declined proceeding. I discovered there was a skin peeling on my finger and washed it in varnish/polish remover.
In march i started having some funny symptoms, some of which i currentl have now. Each time 1 symptom goes another one comes. Currently experiencing night sweats, random sore glands, sore tongue, swollen gums and dry throat at night. I have done over 12 tests since march 2012 all negative for hiv 1 and 2 and hep a b and c.
Can this be
1. Delayed seroconversion
2. Hiv type O as i reside in west africa

Pls help.
I had all imaginable hiv symptoms except the vomitting. Only that all these symptoms lasted/recurred over abt 10 months.
Also suffer from mild nutropenia and hypochromic rbcs. CD4 was 29.4% in oct but now 46% in jan.

Tnx

Thanks for the prompt feedback. Each time i try to move on a different and worrisome symptom appears. My glands in the elbow and breasts are now sore, and i got frequent night sweats. Pls note. I was never worried about the exposure until i started having persisten strange symptoms. Now i have foul excessive gas:(

Just being worried about the rare strains of hiv to be very assured.

Thanks again :)
