Possible hiv from unprotected oral. Please help!

Hello guys I need some additional help here.

Exactly 6 weeks ago I put myself at risk.  I received unprotected oral from a female (I'm male). It lasted maybe 2 minutes and I didn't ejaculate.  Her status is unknown and she's 21.  

I asked Dr. HHH and he said I don't have hiv but I can't seem to let go.  I'm still so scared.  

Testing info:
1 week after exposure, blood test negative for hiv, positive for hsv1 antibodies ( I have yet to EVER have an outbreak)
3 week unigold blood quick test and blood drawn test both negative.
6 week  (today)oral quick plus saliva test, negative.

My issue is that I have a swollen area (it's where my tonsils use to be before I had them removed many years ago due to many chronic tonsilituses) and I received the outcome of my throat culture, which said I had no bacteria.  It remains swollen and hurts slightly.  It has to be viral and I read it's an ars symptom because it started hurting about 2 weeks ago.

I also have sore muscles in chest, triceps and thighs.
My neck, lower abdomen, lower back also hurt.
I've also experienced a tingling sensation on my right side of my body (mainly arm and leg).

Could anyone please give me some insight on what might be happening??
I'm worried sick and the stress is excruciating.

Thanks

I think the 1 in 1000 is what I  believe I've read on this site before. It could be 1 in 10,000 I heard.

Sorry, not meaning to try to make up my own stats.

Much thanks for your quick response.  I've never had a throat issue that couldn't be helped with antibiotics though.  

God knows I want to believe you and Dr. HHH but I don't want to be the 1 in a 1000 that gets hiv from receptive oral!

Thanks again for your insight.

Stop stressing because you never had a risk of hiv transmission from unprotected oral sex,however you should certainly test for other STD,s but not hiv.Hiv is never diagnosed on the basis of symptoms alone.Your symptoms are not hiv related.Your doctor can assist with that issue.Take DrHHH,s advice,its the best your going to receive.All the best.
