Hello,
Since the test is negative even after months of exposure, then you should not be worried about HIV. The test if comes negative at twelve weeks of exposure, then no further testing is advised. HIV 1/2 DUO is a very sensitive test and this detects infection in most individuals.
The symptoms like dry mouth, fear etcetera are most likely due to anxiety and are not due to HIV or any other serious illness. Try to ignore these symptoms and don't get afraid of anything.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Seikhoo Bishnoi
