Unprotected oral and rimming (received)
I received unprotected oral sex and was also rimmed and now after a week I’m experiencing all these symptoms, such as severe swollen tonsils with white spots, muscle pain, fatigue and fever.
I do have to say the fever, fatigue and muscle pain is gone (after 1 day), but my tonsils are disturbingly swollen and covered with white spots.
Do I have a hiv risk?

Your question has been fully answered that you had no risk from this encounter. We wish you the best.

This answers all of your HIV questions, and if you can think of any more just reread about the 3. You had zero risk and your tests were a waste of time.
HIV is a fragile virus, which 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. Doctors have calculated the risk from what you describe to be less than that of being hit by a meteor, therefore no one will get HIV from what you did in the next 40 years of your life either. The above HIV science is 40 years old and very well established, so no detail that you can add to your encounter will change it from zero risk.
You have had threads closed so if it was about this kind of encounter then you are suffering from anxiety. Likely there is nothing wrong with you except fear of disease making you tense up and thinking your body hurts. Your tonsils likely always looked like they do now.
