Two Negative Rapids but Feel Positive Symptoms

I have had two negative rapid hiv tests done at planned parenthood withinn a year of each other but due to recent symptoms I am afraid that my test results were a fluke. I started thinking that maybe the rapid tests were incorrect and that I really am experiencing HIV symptoms. My jawline hurts, there is a light film on my tongue, and I have a cankersore? I have an appointment for blood work but I cannot help but think that it is going to come back positive despite having two negatives. As far as I know none of my past partners are hiv positive.

I have  recently gone on with my tests results as being negative but when I got a cold and possible vaginal infection  I began to worry that they were wrong again.  Although the first two were both eleventh months apart and the first one being 3 months after my possible exposure I recently read that you could still be positive but test negative.  They were no percentages bUT it was quite alarming and I wanted to reach out on the truth Ness of such a possibility.

Nothing is wrong, believe your test results and move on with your life. For your complaints, seek medical help.

yes but what about my easy bruising and sore lymph nodes and little red dots on the back of my tongue.  aren't these all symptoms of hiv, plus my general malaise, the fear or feeling that something is wrong.

Always ignore symptoms when you have a conclusive test result in your hand. Symptoms do not mean much because such symptoms are similar to those due to other illnesses too. Therefore do not get confused, believe your results

my jawline hurts, I have/had canker sores, my tongue looks like and feels like it has white film.  In the past I have had migraines (they come and go and have always attributed them to my menstrual cycle), small dry scaly rash on my left elbow.
