hiv symtomps, can access my risk?

hey everyone i had protected vaginal sex and protected oral with a csw. i came inside the condom while it was still in her vagina. a week after that, these are the symptoms that i got after possible exposure. since i have sinusitis, i will always have flu or cold like runny nose everyday.
1 week after exposure: diarrehea for 5 days and fever for 1 night.
5 weeks after exposure: no appetite for food, weight stays the same
7 weeks after exposure: 4 cold sores appearing inside my mouth

so 8 weeks after exposure i went to get tested. it was AntiHIV in my country. its negative. i went to get tested on 10 weeks after exposure and the result were negative again. my questions are

1) is AntiHIV accurate? since its not what i read online like elisa, rapid test or other
2) is my 10 weeks result conclusive?
3) do you think i have hiv??

thanks for your reply guys im worried sick

Protected sex is not a risk for HIV. Your negative HIV test is conclusive and no further testing is required.

If you're not feeling well, go see the doctor, but you're 100% free from HIV due to no risk, no exposure and your negative test proves this.

Good news you wasted your time testing.
There is no HIV risk from protected sex, hence the name, and unprotected oral isn't even a risk.
You had no exposure, so likely got a flu, which has naturally terrified you because you are under the faulty impression that you are dying. Your overanalysis of your body studying meaningless things like cold sores looking for clues that you are dying is a waste of time now that you know you had no risk.
indeed im no more anxious, thanks alot <3
