What are the chances I got HIV after unprotected sex?

Hi, I have had unprotected sex several times in the past few weeks with someone who is possibly HIV positive. I am saying possibly because he claims that he has been tested, but I feel like he might not be telling the truth and he has some symptoms, he keeps getting colds and he has a swollen gland in his neck. He has only ejaculated inside once, the rest of the time we had intermitent intercourse. I am really freaking out because I think he might be lying to me. If he really is HIV positive, what are my chances of getting the disease? I don't have any symptoms, but I read that this varies and it might take a while before my body shows any symptoms.
Thanks

3 months post exposure after your last unprotected sex and your test will be conclusive.

I really don't think you have anything to worry about. I wouldn't let comments from non-professionals freak you out. If you are really worried, feel free to get tested... but just to calm your fears.

HIV is not anything to guess about. Had you used condoms you wouldn't be here.

87 years old? Your chance of having sex at all is slim. You want to update your profile?
