Are Lightheaded,dizzy And Arm Rash An Indication Of Early HIV Symptoms?

I had a possible HIV exposure two weeks ago. I had performed an HIV 4th generation test as base line and it came back negative.

I been feeling lightheaded, dizzy, and hard to focus since the possible exposure date.

Slight rash occurred in my arms and thighs but they went away in less than a day.

Please advise on the lightheadedness if it is early indication as a symptoms of HIV.

Thank you
