Illness

Good morning,

I was the recipient of about 30 - 45 seconds of anal sex with another male last Friday night. He did wear a condom for this with no ejaculation. This morning I woke up and the glands in my neck are tender and swollen, fatigued, sweating, nausea. Is this acute HIV??

Given this exposure, along with the sex toy exposure I prevously posted about, should I be worried?

The glands in my neck are all swollen, as well as in my throat. I ran a 103 degree fever with chills and sweats...
