Worried, is it HIV or some other STD?
I hope experts on this forum can guide me with some directions.
(1) Sept 21 I made the stupidest mistake and had sex with a korean CSW in NYC. condom slipped, and I also gave oral.
(2) Oct 7 (day 14) first quick test is negative
(3) Oct 9 (day 16) first pain started in groin area, pain initially was like random tingling around groin
the pain then spread out to around groin, leg muscles, arm muscles, joints(hand,arm,leg) and genital area in the following days.
(4) Oct 11 (day 18) start to feel a bit of headache.
(5) Oct 13 (day 20) start to have hip pain or pain somewhere near hip/lower back area while sleeping.
(6) Oct 14 (day 23) second quick test(fingertip) is negative.
(7) Oct 16 (day 25) under the jaw, feel some uncomfortness.
Oct 19 (day 28) a pimp on the neck, ichy, but disappearred next day.
in general now, my body feel tired, especially legs feel tired, heavy,even when I just wake up.
some loss of appetite
loose bawl
urinate more often with less
weight loss from 154 lb to 148lb in 2 weeks.
body temperature has been constantly at 36.7 (mouth)
Now my questions:
(1) I understand symptom is not reliable for detecting HIV, but are my symptoms anything related to HIV symptoms?
(2) If it's not HIV, what other STD can it be? I never had groin pain before, and I am sure I got all these from the exposure with CSW. I saw my people posted similar symptoms (groin pain spread to muscles and joints) but no one can explain what the problem is. This makes me very nervous.
Thanks, and I really hope/appreciate to get some response to calm my nerve.

forgot to mention, oral I gave was unprotected.
I also have some headache for the past 1.5 weeks. sort of feel like a flu, cuz of the headache and muscle/joints/gland pain and tireness.

The girl used her hand with some lub in the middle and then put condom back on for intercourse. it eventually felt inside her becuase of lack of friction, so I am briefly exposed unpretected for I don't know 20 sec?
