General advice for concerned man

I am a male who has had various experiences with men in the cruising scence. Although not frequent I have given and received oral. I have never had a guy ejaculate in my mouth and until recently never had a concern.

Eight weeks ago a guy gave me a BJ and I noted blood on the shaft of my penis. Worried to hell about this and all my other episodes.  Is this a risk?

What about all the other times, is there a risk I could of caught HIV?

I've never been tested and am considering going for a test called fast track, they take a sample by pin prick off a finger. Should I go? At 8 weeks how accurate would this test be?

Because of the fear I'm sure I'm imagining a sore throat, (mild) achy arms and nervousness.,  

Please can you give some support and advice?

Even with this guys bleeding gums? Would this be the same in the case of giving a female oral on her vagina? Although not the same episodes have done this twice on complete strangers!

I feel like death at the moment... Thanks for the prompt reply
