Sorry, I don't know if the condom broke, so need help

Dear all,

Hi, sorry to interrupt you guys. But I have some problems that I need your help!

14 days ago, I had sex with a hooker(CSW). First there was vaginal intercourse, which was done with a condom.  Then had a blowjob with a condom, the problem is that deep-throating during oral sex(I don't know if this description is accurate).  Then I continued to have intercourse using this condom, which was terminated after only a few minutes because I had been drinking. I'm a little worried now because I don't remember if the condom broke the second time I had intercourse(Because the oral sex is a bit violent).

I have read CurfewX's journal:

''Having penetrative sex with a condom that does not visibly break.  Don’t bother filling your condom with water after sex.  Fabled “microscopic” or “tiny” holes in condoms aren’t a cause of HIV transmission.   If a condom breaks, you will know – it will be hard to remove.  A condom that slips, but still covers the head of your penis, prevents HIV.''

But I really don't know if I'm safe this way


Thank you for reading this.  And I need your help!

Best regards!

It's not necessary to ask us to answer you when you've already posted as we are volunteers and eventually will.

NO RISK.  You used a condom and condoms are very noticeable when the break.  You'd have noticed. The only risks for HIV are unprotected vaginal or anal sex or sharing IV drug needles.

Oh, sorry. I'm reading this forum and I see you've replied to everyone except me. I'm afraid you didn't read my message.
I really don't see any obvious break, that's because I only had sex with it for less than a minute and didn't ejaculate. I saw it on the forum that:''Unless you see your penis covered with what looks like a fringed hula hope(i.e. the remnants of condom), your condom DID NOT break''. This was definitely not the state I was in. So am I safe? Thanks a lot!
Condoms break wide open and are noticeable.  You noticed nothing? Your condom likely did not break.  Your exposure even if it did break was negligible at best. Based on what you've said in this post and your follow up, I would not worry about HIV nor do you need to get tested.  
Alright, thank you so much! I really didn't see any noticeable damage.  I hope things are as you say and thank you again!
Still want to make sure, Is there a risk only if the condom is completely broken and the glans exposed?  Condoms must be noticeable if they break? I'm worried I'm at risk because I've been having a sore throat lately. So I'm concerned about small, subtle condom breakages..
You have been fully advised that a condom break would be noticeable and not subtle.  We cannot ask our members to keep repeating their advice.
