hi,
you have not mentioned about protection. if you have not used condom, then you have high chance of getting infected as other lady is stranger. even without cuts, fluids can pass through normal mucosa. so always protection is essential.
but, symptoms like cough, diarrhea will not come so early. it is more likely due to anxiety. so be relaxed now you can not do anything. and wait for 3 months or get NAT test of HIV/ or p24 assay which can be tested after few days of exposure, without waiting for 3 months.
never have unprotected sex with stranger.
wish you healthy life.
