Hello
You had sex on June 18th , while tested for HIV on Nov 12th.
Antibodies to HIV begin to appear within 2 weeks of infection and the period of time between initial infection and the development of detectable antibodies is rarely more than 3 MONTHS ( here I want to tell you that your test in that sense is accurate and you are HIV free).
You are having swollen glands, fever and pinching of nerve but the reason of these symptoms may be .
Lymphadinitis due to any chronic infection , get in blood for CBC and esr.
You din't mention that site where ,these lymph nodes are enlarged , so it is very difficult to say what is the reason of this enlargement.
You can visit an ICTC ( integrated counselling and testing center) to get your self tested and get rid of tension otherwise you are HIV free.
Good luck.
