Trying to move on....

5 weeks ago I had protected sex with a woman whos HIV status I did not know. At two to three weeks after I became mildly ill....very stiff neck and fatigue,  a couple bad night sweats where I had to change my t-shirt and a few episodes of watery diarrhea. The stiff neck lasted about a week and the other stuff only happen two to three times at the most during that time. No fevers, rash or any other ars symptoms that I am aware of. I know its possible to contract HIV while wearing a condom from studies done but more over I am freaking out because we were masturbating each other and I got ample amounts of vaginal fluid on my hands. Afterward I noticed a tear in my cuticle on one finger and a seperation between my cuticle and finger nail on another finger.  I read on "the body".com that its possible to contract HIV through gaps in the skin. So my questions are:  do any of my symptoms sound like I got infected? is it possible that I got infected through my fingers this way or through a weak condom some how? And is any type of testing warrented? I just think it is so scary and strange that I got sick after this happen and I am pretty worried. Thanks for your input

You didn't have a risk of contracting HIV and no you don't need an HIV test.
