Ear Infection and Now Fever

I had protected vaginal sex with a sex worker in late October 2013; I also gave her oral sex to her vagina and anus.  Today, my chlamydia and gonorrea tests were negative, now waiting on HIV, syphilis, HEP, etc...

My wife now has a fever and an ear infection, stating her neck is sore too.  What are the chances I have given her HIV?

Not knowing if the sex worker is infected with Hep A, what is the likelihood I could have gotten Hep?

All that needs to be covered in penetrative sex is the head of your penis.

If my condom was coming off, but my penis head was still covered, is that still good protection?

I appreciate your help.  Thank you.  It helps set me at ease, as I have high anxiety right now with the symptoms my wife has.  Would an ear infection with a fever fall into an HIV symptom had I had HIV exposure?
