What could I do?

Hello, this is my question, I stupidly had unprotected anal sex with this bisexual guy 2 months ago I was the receiving partner, I got to know him before and thought of him as  a very responsible guy, supposedly this was the first time he hadn´t used a condom,  so I thought he was really HIV-, but three weeks after that I got cought on the rain and stayed a little wet for some hours, the next day I had high fever, absolute nasal congestion and a tremendous sore throat that made me hard to even swallow water for 2 days, I didn´t get any of the other symptoms but I don't know if I seroconverted or it was the rain, I am afraid of getting the test and I don't know how to get the courage to find out, I believe that if it is positive I could get a hearth attack or something right on the spot, how can I calm down?

So do you know this method? Is it really a zero chance it was unnacurate at 5 months? I feel terrible, and the sides of my tounge have white  hair like bands all over the sides and I can´t take them out, I thought it was exclusive of HIV positive patients, should I take an Oraquik?

OK, 5 months after my super risky exposure, (he came in me) I felt really bad, and I developed  canker sores in my mouth, it was very painful to eat,  I also  have occypital lymphadenopathy and oral Hairy leukoplakia, it is very obvious and on both sides of my toungue, it is not something that looks like it, it is  EXACTLY like pictures of it, and I can't  remove it with my thoothbrush no matter how hard I try.

I knew there was no possibility of it not being HIV so I  told my friend that  I was sorry and there was no doubt that we had HIV, but I  I decided to take a test for Antibodies to HIV in blood  on a mexican lab anyway.  They used the  Chemiluminiscence method, they told me to wait a day but in 3 hours they gave me the result and it came back neg. Are you guys familiar with this method? Should I test again? I don't know how could I have Oral Hairy Leukoplakia and be negative, it makes no sense! Please help!

unprotected sex is high risk of contracting HIV , you need to undergo HIV test 3 months from your last risky behavior

You need to calm down and take the test now because at 2 months you will get a solid result which will just about be conclusive.3 months is the 100% conclusive time frame but to ease your stress i suggest you test now.Build up the courage and test now.
