Hi XXXXXXX
Welcome to XXXXXXX
Thanks for posting your query.

There are 30-40% of couples remaining one partner uninfected (Sero-Discordant)with regular sex for years together.

The symptoms (burning sensation all over lymph nodes) explained by you are not common in HIV.Sore throat and red blemishes are common to anybody without HIV.

Test for HIV is more conclusive after 90 days.
So one more test, 3 months after your last sex contact is suggested for you.
Safe sex is preferable to avoid unnecessary tensions.
