The symptoms are nonspecific and can be due to respiratory contact with any person. It does not suggest HIV.
The risk of transmission of HIV is almost nil by the oral route.

If you are still anxious you can go for Elisa for HIV antibodies.You can get it tested as routine if any problem with your government.
