Confused on what I should do.

Hello, doctor, first I want to thank you for the support on this forum. I have few questions so hopefully you can provide some answers. Thanks in advance. I am a straight male 22 years of age.
2001- I was 10 years old and my uncle raped me, I never told anyone about it....he is now married with two kids.
2006- Unprotected Vaginal Sex with high school girl---sex was no longer then 5 seconds.
2011- Had sex with CSW. She only performs oral but i convinced her to vaginal sex. Intercourse was protected and then condom broke and she noticed and we stopped immediately. I am also 100% positive my urethura was covered, but i always have thoughts in my hand "maybe it wasn't covered."
2011- Protected sex with csw------she provided and alternative condom because she is "allergic" to latex condoms?
Q- Do you think she might have set me up? Is it something i need to worry about?

Dec 2012- Received unprotected oral from CSW. After the oral i went home and just realized i put myself at risk, i never thought about hiv/stds in the past. I became paranoid, i emailed her and she swore she was clean. STDs never crossed my mind until 2012. I became stressed, lost sleep, lost focus, and thought my life was over. Few weeks later after the unprotected oral i developed red tiny bums on my tongue, and white strip on the side of my tongue. I thought it might have been oral thrush, but i googled it and didnt look like thrush, but maybe it is.  

So finally in April i called some company and scheduled to get tested for all STDs. When I spoke to the technician on the phone, i told her i do not want to know my hiv status because i didnt know what i was going to do if turned out positive. So i went to get tested and the lady drawing my blood says i have to include hiv so i said ok. So i get tested and a few days later i receive my result and it said i tested positive for HSV-1 and HSV-2, and for HIV it said pending. A few weeks later one of the MDs emailed me and told me that the technician who read my results was a student and she made a mistake reading my results. She aplogizes and tells me i tested negative for ALL stds and that i dont have nothing to worry about. To this day, 9 months later, i still have the red tiny bumbs, not as much but they are there, and the thrush is there to.  

QUESTIONS
I saw some research that said patients who are in the late stages of hiv develop thrush.....AM I IN THE LATE STAGE, DID I ACQURE HIV  2,7,or 12 YEARS AGO?
From a medical stand point, do you think should i get tested for HIV?
Do you think when the MD said all STDs, she meant HIV too?

I am struggling to understand, how did you protect your urethra from exposure when your condom ripped off from the top (this is a typical and normal condome failure case).

Suggest you to get a test done anytime now and collect a conclusive result.

Yea i am almost certain the urethera was covered. The top of the condom ripped, we stopped before it got worse.

Your chances of catching HIV from these incidents (anal sex 12 years ago and condom failure during sex with CSW) are not high, however you were certainly exposed to the risk. There is very strong possibility that your uncle does not have HIV, and 12 years time is enough for the virus to displaye noticeable symptoms of progression.

However condom failure with someone of unknown status is also there. Condom failure is catastrophic when it tears apart, therefore it is difficult to believe that your urethra was covered after the failure.

To answer your questions,

No this is not true for thrush alone
Yes you can get yourself tested, collect your conclusive report and throw all your worries away permanently. Any test done after 3 months of last exposure gives you a clean chit
