HIV 2, does it show up in a test after unprotected sex

I had unprotected sex with a girl of unknown status.

Just wanted to ask if someone that if I am having symptoms would I test positive. I been having these sores in my nose since my exposure which never happened to me before so its really worring me. Also been having alchohol intolerance since then, i have been tested multiple times last test being a little over 10 momths after exposure and there all coming back negative using 4th gen test also had a dna/rna pcr at 9 months for hiv 1, not detected, so i think i might be infected with hiv 2. Whats the chance i did not develop antibodies to hiv 2, these symptoms are really weird and never happened before

As you have tested conclusively negative for HIV, your questions/comments are outside the scope of this forum.  There is nothing more for anyone in this forum to add since you do not have HIV.

Please see an ENT doctor for your ailment, they are not related to HIV. You have tested conclusively negative and there is no point in doubting your result. The only set of people that would sero-convert after 6-8 week are people who are on chemotherapy for cancer. I am sure that is not your concern.

Please accept your result. You don't have to worry about HIV, if you are unable to accept your result reach out for professional help.
Its got to be hiv, sores wouldnt show up out of no were

You've fully tested negative.  No reason to suspect HIV anymore or to test again.  Your symptoms have nothing to do with HIV.  

I would let this fear go and move on.
