chances of transmission of HIV is always there with unprotected sex but it's very very less, that too depend on many factors like virus load in the patient, Any ulcer or active infection of the genitalia and immune system.
You shouldn't worry about all this, go ahead, get yourself tested for HIV,

if it comes to be positive, treatment is available which can improve your quality of life and you can live a normal life.
It's better to rule out your doubt at earliest possible.
