HIV status of your wife doesn't tell you a thing about your HIV status. I don't know about your encounter, but if it was unprotected anal/vaginal sex with a high risk group, I think you should get tested for HIV. If you are scared of testing, please know that testing for HIV will  not give you HIV. It will just give you the right information about your HIV status.
Also,symptoms won't tell you anything about HIV.
Nothing will be more reassuring than a test.

Just because you have cold or any symptoms of HIV does not mean its due to HIV.

How long after the exposure did you get tested ? I would say you are at no risk for it.
