Brief Answer:
You can go for 4th gen Duos test.
Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXXXXX
Welcome to HCM.
You had protected vaginal sex and blow job then it is not risky at all and HIV Duos test is also negative after 70 days then you are 100% safe and risk free from HIV so allay the fear or anxiety related to it.
As such no further testing is required for HIV but to follow international HIV guidelines you can go for 4th gen Duos or ELISA test after 12 weeks nothing else so be relaxed and move ahead in life happily.
Thank You
