Brief Answer:
You are HIV free. symptoms are not related to HIV.

Detailed Answer:
HI,
Welcome to HCM.
Thanks for posting your query.
First of all HIV is no longer a killer disease. It is a well manageable disease and people with HIV positive are also having a good qualitative life as that of anybody else for more than 20 years with the disease. So there is no question of dying. Leave that depressive feeling.
For you there is no possibility HIV transmission just by nipple sucking alone even if she was a lactating woman. Only 25-30% of breast-fed infants acquire HIV through breast milk after a prolonged period of sucking, say, 6 months or more. Remaining children are HIV free in spite of prolonged breast feeding. So a single exposure to breast secretion would not be infectious at all.
Nothing to worry. Moreover a negative HIV test 3 months after (after window period) that incident is conclusive. You are totally HIV 1 and 2 free.
All your symptoms are common to have for anybody and not specific to HIV. Even they may be due to anxiety or phobia against HIV. Consult your physician and get examined and treated for your symptoms and forget about HIV.
