I am glad to read you use condoms.  That's what you need to do in order to protect yourself. The only ways adults get HIV is from unprotected vaginal or anal sex or sharing IV drug needles.  As to being sick, mono does happen.  We can get mono from kissing but also through sharing drinks, silverware, etc.  It's often spread through saliva.  Have you kissed anyone or shared a glass or spoon?  It takes rest and time to recover from mono and drink lots of fluids.  But it has nothing to do with your protected sex.  Here's information on mono. https://www.webmd.com/a-to-z-guides/understanding-mononucleosis-causes#1  You had no risk for HIV at all and don't need to worry about that.
