HIV Risk, Sound advice needed please

Hello

I would be greatful if feedback could be given regarding my risk to HIV exposure as I am beside myself with worry at the moment.

8 days ago very stupidly I had an encounter with a lady that I should not have, I do not know her and she probably has had many many many sexual partners for sure.
About half an hour before the contact I had masterbated on my own and ejaculated so there will have been semen around the tip of my penis half an hour later.

The lady gave me a back massage first then touched my testicals and stroked me a little. She then put a condom on me that she supplied and gave me oral sex for a short time. Then she put some lube on her vagina from a bottle and rubbed it slightly. I put my penis inside her and came after only 2 strokes. I pulled out and pulled the condom off myself and discarded it. I then wiped my penis with a wet wipe and only afterwards realised I could have put some of her vaginal fluid on the wet wipe from my fingers when I pulled the condom off??

I did not kiss her or touch her vagina or give her oral sex.

At around day 4 after this I had a horrible thought that could I have cought HIV? I did not sleep at all that night. The next day I was tired and my muscles felt achy and I did not feel hungry at all. I just felt a little shaky a bit hot and weak and very worried, no headach, no swollen glands, no rash, no vomit, no bluuriness. For the next two days, day 6 and 7 I felt pretty much the same, worried and weak and legs and arms feel weary and had a very dry mouth and could not sleep and did not feel hungry at all.



I know this could well be anxiety but could it also be symtoms at days 5-7 after the incident?

Is it possible that I have exposed myself to HIV given this detailed explanation?

Thanks from one very worried and very stupid man who wont do this again given another chance



I plan to be tested at 28 days but any help before would be helpful.

thanks for this.

Things have changed a little and I am confused and further feedback from would be appreciated.

I have now developed a bit of a  white tongue and tiny white spots around my lips and my mouth feels dry and clacky. I have never had this in all my life so think there must be some reason for being like this? I'm on day 9 since incident. Is this too much of a coincidence or can thrush if thats what it is be brought on by anxiety?

I have had night sweats for the last 3 nights but my muscles are less achy now and I have some appetite back now which I lost for a couple of days around days 5 and 6.

Sorry to change my username but I forgot my username and the email reminder did not work, i probably messed that up with all my worry
