HIV scared

about 6 months ago i had protected sex with a CSW and when i was about to finish the condom broke and i ejaculated inside her. Her first reaction was to ask me if i was clean, but when i asked her if she was she said yes and she also told me that she had papers prooving she had been testing and everything is okay. When i asked her to show me those papers she said they are in spanish and you are not going to understand a word which sounded to me like a pretty stupid excuse. I asked her one more time and she said she was clean and she told me not to worry. Today (6 months later) i developed a dandruff and some foot fungus and the last 2 days i had diarrhea(although i am not sure if this is related to the other symptoms or it is due to the bad drinking i had 2 nights before). Anyway do you think all this is hiv related and how high my risk from this incident is?

Symptoms don't reflect HIV. Not everyone gets symptoms, and even if they do, the symptoms mimics everyday illnesses, and it varies from one individual to another so its useless to use symptoms to diagnose symptoms.
The only way to know is to test. Since it has been 6 months after your exposure, a simple antibody test will reveal your status. be well.
