Brief Answer:
No further test is required.

Detailed Answer:
Dear Sxxxxxxxxp,

Welcome to HCM.

You had unprotected sex with massage girl but the test result for HIV is non reactive after 90days then the result is considered 100% confirmatory so no further test is required and you are absolutely safe as well as risk free from HIV infection.

The symptoms you have might be due to any other viral illness not related to HIV. There is no chance of HIV infection in your case so allay the anxiety or fear and move on in life happily. If still any query is there feel free to ask me any time again.

Thank You
