When should İ get tested?

I gave a man oral and we used a condom.  Then we did regular sex and he did not change the condom.  I was careful to not use my teeth during the oral and damage the condom.  And I filled it with water after to see if it leaked but it did not.  Due to these factors was I at risk and in how many weeks should İ get tested?

Congratulations, you used a condom. Which means that you had zero risk for HIV. As long as you always use condoms, you'll never have to worry about HIV.

I remember your user name because I think it is clever.  But that means I probably already gave you the causes of HIV transmission.  They include unprotected anal or vaginal intercourse and sharing IV drug needles.  Protected sex and oral sex is not a risk.  Nothing you add will make it a risk. Saliva inactivates the virus as does air.  Condoms provide a barrier.  So, you did not risk anything.  ZERO risk.
