Stomach cramps and issues for over 3 months

Since May I have had stomach cramps and bloating and abdominal discomfort. I took all antibiotics and anti ulcer drugs. Had some basic tests and all came clean. Last week I weighed myself to find out I lost 5 kg. I went for a scan and all internal organs are doing well yet my stomach hurts really bad with random bowel movements and diarrhea at times. A doctor said I go for a HIV test and right now I'm dead scared.

What could possibly be the problem here. No fever, no headache, no vomiting but sometimes I am fatigued from deep thoughts.

Yes. In May. I used a condom. But found out later the girl used her vaginal fluid on her fingers to rub my penile opening and ever since then she's refused to pick my calls or even see me. I feel so strongly she's HIV +
That is not an HIV risk, so your doctor is wrong. You might be better off finding another doctor, because this guy will waste your time testing for HIV.
HIV is a fragile virus with very limited methods to infect as you will read below
You had no risk for HIV so any test would be a waste of time.  
There are only 3 ways HIV can be transmitted and you didn't do any of them.

HIV is instantly inactivated in air and also in saliva which means it is effectively dead so it can't infect from touching, external rubbing or oral activities. It doesn't matter if you and they were actively bleeding or had cuts at the time either because the HIV is effectively dead.  
Only 3 adult risks are the following:
1. unprotected penetrating vaginal with a penis
2. unprotected penetrating anal sex with a penis
3. sharing needles that you inject with. Knowing these 3 are all you need to know to protect yourself against HIV. The situation you describe is a long way from any of these 3.
Even with blood, lactation, cuts, rashes, burns, etc the air or the saliva does not allow inactivated virus to infect from touching, external rubbing or oral activities.  The above HIV science is 40 years old and very well established. No one got HIV from what you did in 40 years of HIV history, so likely no one will in the next 40 years of your life.
I can understand why she refuses to answer your calls or see you, because you have accused her of something ridiculous that she didn't do.
