sooooo sad!!!

5 wks ago to the day i did something i will regret forever..i am 26 and have only had 1 monogamous partner my whole life, recently we broke up..one night out w/ my gf in a drunken manner i made out w/ a guy..he had a tongue piercing and some how through deep kissing i caused the underneath of his tongue to bleed..i did not know and before i knew it he was performing oral sex on me..it only lasted maybe 10-15 sec. before he realized he could taste blood..i did not have any open sores nor cuts..we did not have intercourse but there was a lot of rubbing..i was tested at my gynocologists office at 2 wks for everything and it all came up neg.. since then the thoughts of possible contraction has controlled my every thought..at 41/2 wks i had a headache for 2 days straight a couple of days later i looked at my tonsils and they had pus on them, no pain though..i went to the doc to see if it was strep but he said i checked out fine..he said my lymph nodes werent swollen but i feel as though they are.. now a couple of days later my throut is sore..i have had a couple of swollen taste buds on the side of my tongue that are causing a lot of pain, dont know if those are ulcers..now that i have read about rashes i feel like my back is itchy all of a sudden..the only thing that seems to make me feel better is to sit on the comp. for hours and analyze everything i can..i have dealt w/ anxiety and panic attacks in the past and i know i am an obsessive thinker but again i feel like im dying inside waiting..i am getting tested again in a wk and then at 3 mon. but i just dont know how to deal w/ this until that time.. i spoke w/ the guy and he said i didnt have anything to worry about, but  he hadnt been tested recently..i know that oral sex carries very low risk but what about when blood is involved, mucus membranes etc???i appreciate people taking the time to answer everyones questions, and sorry so long im just so scared :

For you it would be conclusive. You didn't have a risk to begin with.

RELAX okay yes the net will scare the mess out of you I know I have been there!!!!
Get tested you will ease up when you get that negative result that you can expect .
Symptoms dont mean anything its like this if you are around someone who is sick guess what? More than likely you will catch it to. Well hiv isnt that easy to contract its a fragile virus did you know that? All the cards have to be just right. Dont believe all the HYPE you read ok

thank you, i appreciate your comments atleast i can take a deep breath now..but it is probably still a good idea for me to get tested, dont u think? so getting his blood in my mucus membranes puts me at no risk?? and my symptoms sound pretty normal??..and just curious when you search the internet why do they make all the info about oral sex so scary, is it  a scare tactic..just curious

sorry for restating my ?? i wont waste anymore of your time, its just so nice when your all alone to get a lil reassurance..
thank you so much
