Theoretically should I be tested?

I had unprotected cullingings to and received unprotected oral from a sex worker. Vaginal sex is protected. The day after I began to get paranoid because I see a slight red scratch on my foreskin probably from putting on the condom because the condom is tight. However, I wasnt sure if the red scratch is there when she performed oral on me. I called back to the sex worker 4 times and she swear that she is std free including HIV. She said she got tested 1 year ago, and she has only had 4 men before me. For some reason she has a husband. The question is that anxiety is killing me because many symptoms of HIV can be caused by extreme anxiety.  I experienced muscle pain, diahrrea, mouth sores, and have 5 pimple like dots in front of my chest. I went to see the doctors and they say I am fine. I got urinary test for std 3 weeks later  and negative.  I am just so worried that theoretically should I be paranoid and get tested for HIV 6 weeks later?  Some ppl here say oral is negletable?       Please Help me!!!!!!!!!!!

How about the five pimple like unknown bumps in front of my chest? Evrytime when I see them I am worried because I dont usually have pimples on my chest. Do they sound like hiv rash or something?

Thank you diver58, it is always goood to hear this information, but before when I checked up on the internet they always say you can be infected through oral sex but it is lower risk. How come ppl here are always so sure that oral is safe? I believe from what I saw I didnt see any sores or blood in her mouth but who knows? Also how about sucking her vagina? Does it present some risk?

You don't even qualified "theoretically for a test because your risk is non existent. Unprotected oral is not a risk for HIV transmission and rest of the contact was protected,,, so overall risk is zero.
