protected sex with a prostitute

Hi. I engaged in sexual intercourse with a prostitute (for the 1st time) on wednesday, 11/3/2009. This was at a massage parlour in south east asia while i was travelin on work. Of course the place was pretty lavish and it seemed to be one of those high end places. the management claimed that all girls were tested and clean and that condoms were a requirement. Of course, i used a condom, even while she performed oral sex on me. once we started intercourse, i kept checking for slippage and breakge but everything seemed fine. I didnt ejaculate inside her. instead she gave me a handjob but her hands were clean. We both showered before we started.

On a personal note, it was the biggest mistake of my life. But at the same time, i think i was pretty careful. Im only worried because i seem to have got a bit of a headache/fever 4 days after the encounter. its nothing major, but when i saw the symptoms online, i got a bit worried. I dont have rashes, dihorrea or swollen glands.

Also, i also got a tattoo done while i was traveling.  but it was a reputed parlour and they showed me the brand new needles and ink guns before starting. I have 2 questions:

1. given the precautions i took, what are the chances of contracting hiv from this sexual encounter?
2. what are the chances that the headache/fever are related to the sexual encounter?

I intend to get a test done but i believe that i need to wait 3 months for a conclusive test. in the meanwhile, im scared outta my mind. please help.

2. Not a chance in hell.

You didn't have a risk and you don't need testing.
