Also the next day after the encounter I noticed a small cut on the backside of my finger not sure when it occured or if it was bleeding during the encounter or if she had an active open wound at the same time what is the risk of transmission through this way

That is not how HIV is spread. In an adult the only way HIV can infect is through unprotected anal/vaginal sex and sharing drug needles with infected users. Nothing else you've posted is any risk for infection. You do not have HIV because you had no risk.

Sounds like you had an allergic reaction to the meds that you were given. Which should be reported to your doctor because some allergic reactions can be fatal. But it has absolutely nothing to do with HIV because you had no risk.

Oral sex is not a risk of HIV transmission, particularly if you are the insertive partner. You do not need testing for HIV and cannot experience seroconversion. You might want to get tested for other STIs though such as chlamydia or gonorrhea for example.
But just to answer your questions, ARS symptoms usually appear 10-14 days after exposure. Symptoms are not a way to diagnose yourself as a lot of symptoms are quite similar to other infections such influenza.

According to RubyWitch last week, no one has got HIV from oral so zero risk. If so then insertive wouldn't have anything to do with a zero risk situation.
This is not what the CDC says and a lot of other governmental institutions...
They all say that theoretically it is possible for a transmission to exist for a receptive partner but only in situations that are pretty much impossible to reproduce in real life. It is true that no case has been reported but we have to be careful in what we say. There is a difference between no risk (impossible) and negligible (possible theoretically but almost impossible in reality).

You had no risk from oral sex and therefore nothing you're referring to has anything to do with HIV.
