HIV - test in 4 months?

Hi,

I have had sex with a prostitute only one time (used a condemn) and kissed her mouth to mouth deep for 3 minutes..  

I have started with Mouth Burning Pain and bad saliva which started after two weeks from the incident. I have checked the doctor, he said no mono  but suspected strep throat so he treated me with Augmention / Clarithomycin 500mg for 7 days each.  He gave me predisone 60mg per day for 7 days. predisone helped little but those symptoms came back again.

Almost 7 months now, I'm suffering with strep throat, sinus infection, Joint pain in hand & leg, and skin burning pain in hand and leg"  I have tested the HIV test in 3 1/2 months and again 4.5 months both results were came negative but I'm still worried that I have been going through something big. Please advice.

1. How much I  can trust the  3/2 and 4/12 month HIV test results?

2. Do I need to still go for HIV test after 6 months?

3. What are things could cause above symptoms?

4. Any recommendations to see the type of doctor and the type of blood work to be done?

5. Where would be the best place to check the HIV / STD details.

Thanks

You never needed HIV testing, both tests are conclusive, forget about HIV, you do not need additional HIV testing, work with your doctor on your symptoms.
