Please help me with this pain

Does anyone know if stress can make your joints hurt. I started about 3 weeks ago, and it i weird because it started with my knees, then ankles, then feet. About a week later the joint pain started being more present in my elbows, wrists, then hands in that order. Now another week later it is going on to my hips, and shoulders. It is present in my hips right now, but sometimes it will spread to other areas. I dont understand why it is happening but it is real.
I have been stress, anxious, paranoid and depressed because I have convinced myself that I have,hiv  . About 5 weeks ago I had sex   with this girl. My friend told me that he heard she was hiv  positive after the very same day of me having and ever since then I have been sweating every night. Having night terrors, nightmares, I got a PCR test 13 day later got a negative. I was content with that result even though it was non conclusive, but that very day when I left the hospital I started getting the joint pain in my knee joints and it slowly progressed to the rest of my body. Im very afraid even though I wore protection the fear has consumed my life, and the joint pain is still here.
Im very unfamiliar with anxiety symptoms but familiar with acute hiv  symptoms, even though I dont have any other symptoms. I cant find any article directly linking stress to joint pain, and it is all over my body but there are a ton of articles conncecting joint pain to acute hiv   . What worries me is that acute hiv    is suppose to show up 3-6 weeks later,, and exactly 3 weeks later from possible exposure i get this joint pain, it is just too big a coincidence that it showed up. Ive never had a history of joint pain in my life, so you could see where my anxiety, and fear is coming from.
My question is does anyone know that this type of joint pain where it just bounces from different joints in my body sound like something anxiety can cause? Also it hits my ribs and sometimes my muscles but only once a day at most, the joint pain is always at least in one of my joints

i dont know what kind of arthritis this could be. but it started with my knees, then to my toes, then ankles, then went up to my elbows, wrists, fingers, three days ago it went to my hips and my groin region was burning as well as my butt region, not it completely disappeared from my hip and is in my shoulders. this has all happened in three weeks, and will not go away

thanks,

i just have never had any of these pains before and each time one part goes off i freak out. today i had this kind of lower back pain, im not really sure if it was even pain, just like it was aching. the pain is migrating to specific regions in my body everyday. does this sound like anything you know of?

you could have rheumatoid arthritis at any age, fibromyalgia, or several other autoimmune diseases.  Go and get tested for these, although tests for these are not conclusive.  Try ibuprofen or another analgesic to take away the inflammation, and of course tylenol or whatever for pain, as long as you're not allergic to either.  The weather/barometric pressure often has an effect on joints/muscles, and yes, stress/anxiety can cause inflammation and pain.
