Very concerned abut having HIV

I had an HIV exposure ( Non protected oral and protected vaganial with Chinese condom not sure if it is Latex) in the 1st of November 2011 and the following has happened since then;
1. I have developed colon problems due to stress and lost interest in eating. I have a lot of gas in my stomach. No interest to eat.
2. I have lost 7 Kg in the last 4 months and have some red spots (3 of them, one in the arm, back and the chest) in the skin.
3. I have Sore throat and pain in the tonsils since 4 months. No heavy fever,
4. I had some night sweets, 2-3 nights if I remember right.
5. As well I had Uvula Papilloma [HPV] which was removed by my ENT in the 28th of FEB 2011 (still waiting for optopsy). Is it true that this is an early HIV symptoms?
6. My sexual interest is very low and lost early morning penis up.
7. I have one blocked nose all the time, flu type thing with -20dp pressure in the right ear and pressure in the right eye.

What I have done so far in terms of testing is;
1. I have done a series of Elisa test every month; last one was in the 26th of FEB 2011 and shows negative (between 0.14 and 0.25reading).
2. I have tested my wife for HIV  in the 27th of FEB 2011 3.5 months after my exposure to her and tested negative (0.19). She has some flu symptoms and no weight loss, and some continues vegaina infection for the last 4 weeks.
3. I performed PCR test in the 23rd of FEB 2011 (15 weeks, 3.75 months from exposure) and the result was < 20 copies/ml.

what the chances that I had HIV are, and should I re-test after two months? If you have the HIV symptoms how can I test negative?
Waht type of HPV is related to Uvula Paipilloma; What is the risk that can I pass it to my wife?what preventaive measures should we take?

I am under a lot of pressure and almost lost control of my life, please help me.
Thanks

Thanks for your reply. Very relieving indeed.
I have learnt my lesson; this is the most expensive one though.
A part from that I don’t have the HIV symptoms, is the PCR test is conclusive at this time.

NO - YOU DON'T HAVE HIV

If you have the HIV symptoms how can I test negative?

BECAUSE 1) YOU DON'T HAVE IT AND 2) YOU DON'T HAVE THE "SYMPTOMS"

Waht type of HPV is related to Uvula Paipilloma; What is the risk that can I pass it to my wife?what preventaive measures should we take?

GET A GRIP. YOU CHEATED ON YOUR WIFE AND NOW YOU ARE FRIGHTENED. SOME MIGHT SAY THAT IS TO BE EXPECTED. YOU'LL NEED TO ASK YOUR ENT SURGEON RE THE HPV. I STRONGLY SUSPECT THAT THIS DOES NOT RELATE TO A SINGLE EPISODE OF INFIDELITY BUT A SEQUENCE ON YOUR PART.

THE ONE THING THAT IS CERTAIN IS THAT YOU DO NOT HAVE HIV.

YOU ARE UNDER PRESSURE BECAUSE YOU HAVE CHEATED AND NOW YOU HAVE TO EXPLAIN IT - THAT IS NOT, LUCKILY THE SAME AS HAVING HIV.
