I have to be sure

I got Herpes Zoster on 7th day of my exposure( protected sex and fingered her and stick my fingers in to my mouth) It is on my left hip I got my left lymph swelling. It took 3 days. Now seems to be vanishing.
it has been 20 days passed since my exposure. Most people said that I had no risk. However I have got to be sure that I am clear. I couldn't take any risk of infecting my wife. I made a big mistake and she shouldn't pay the penalty.
Which of the test should I take within 20 days to be %100 sure that I am ok.
Please help!
Thanks
