You have done the right thing by taking PEP within 72 hours after knowing your partner is HIV positive. There is little to worry about if you have taken a month treatment and post treatment you tested negative.
Coming to joint pains, you may see your doctor and get few blood tests done. If required HIV test may need to be repeated. Please get your chest examined if you have cough symptoms . Any associated fever, weakness and loss of weight must also be evaluated.
Hope this helps.
