Oral from an addict, greater chance of hiv transmission?

2 weeks ago I got oral sex from an drug addict and came inside her mouth. She said she was tested and didn’t have anything but I’m still worried. What are the chances I have HIV

Oral sex isn't a risk for HIV. The only risks for HIV are to have unprotected vaginal or anal sex or sharing IV drug needles to inject drugs. Air and saliva inactivate the virus. Both of which are present during oral sex. So, you had no risk from this exposure. Rest easy
