The condom broke for 2 seconds and i pulled put. Possible HIV?

I had a condom protected encounter with an individual i didnt know and the condom broke and as soon as it broke i pulled out and ejaculated. I dont know but two weeks later i had a genital sore looked like a razor cut which looked like herpes but it healed very quickly. it occured on the bottom of my shaft and it seemed like i didnt have the condom on properly but there was little chance that her fluids got into me. I got hives the other day which i took an antihistamine and it went away. I dont have any swollen lymphnodes and i got a fever which lasted only a day. I dont know her HIV status and i got tested for HIV after 5 days and again in one month both were negative. I have a tingling feeling in my hands and feet (peripheral neuropathy?) and i get red patches on my skin which itch but go away very quickly. i sweat at night sometimes but only due to the heater in my room. i had cough with flegm but i am a smoker. do i have a chance of HIV infection?

    If you were to have been in contact at all with HIV, I know that it takes months even years to show up on a blood test! Other STDS can be detected via blood tests in around 3 months, and swab tests if there are sores or lesions present can also determine what STD. Some people go on for years with no symptoms of HIV, so it is hard to tell. Keep getting tested every 6 months to a year to be safe.

    Getting tested 5 days or a month after won’t conclusively tell you – you have to wait three months. Most of the symptoms you listed have other causes which are probably more likely (some kind of allergies caused the rashes, a cold caused the cough with phlegm, etc). I’d recommend that you get tested at the three-month mark, but you probably don’t have much to worry about, other than slight hypochondria.

    You don’t have to wait 3 monts 6-8 weeks with the tests currently avaliable is ok. I think your risk is very low but get tested once more to be sure

    You are correct, there is very little chance that her fluids were even on you. Most people will test positive 4-6 weeks post exposure. So your 1 month test is reliable, but not considered conclusive. Peripheral neuropathy occurs with advanced HIV infection (or AIDS). HIV is very uncommon in the US. Assuming your partner was poitive, the odds are 1 in 1000. Just for peace of mind, test again at the 12 week mark. Your results will be negative and you can try to put this out of your mind.
