Possible Infection - ARS SYMPTONS

Hi Everyone,

I'm male and had unprotected oral sex with a Escort (I had penile candidiasis when I got blew, but my penis was just a little red and itchy, whitout any sores or wounds.), 2 weeks after I got sick, sore throat, cough, runny nose. Didn't had fever, night sweats or anything related but my neck lymph nodes were enlarged. I got a injection at the pharmacy and in two days I was better, my trhoat insisted on "scratching" a little but it's cold season here in my country.

My question is: I did a rapid test last wednesday, 45 days after exposure and it was negative, if those symptons were actually seroconverting it probably would be positive, right? I just want to understand what is the window from ARS symptons and testing positive.
Also, I had unprocted sex two days after this event, woman with know status of hiv negative. She would be at risk if theorically I had contracted HIV or would it be to soon to transmit?

What makes me more worried is having candidiasis at the time.

Oral sex doesnt carry any risk of hiv transmission.. never has happened. You were not exposed in the first place.. your test results proved that (which was a total waste of money cos you didnt need that test).

Now about the other person, you cant pass on something that you dont have..

be well..
