What Causes Shingles And Thrush After Sex?

Hi,I did something really stupid april 10th now I am concerned about HIV. I already went to my regular Dr. had all test done including HIV and everything is neg. I found on internet that it can take 3mnths. 3 days later after I had sex with someone I ended up with shingles and thrush. I have had a soar throat off and on all winter but I still have a minor soar throat and my dr. gave me medicine for thrush which is almost cleared up,(only been on thrush med since last wed.) My Dr. says I don t have worrisome symtoms for HIV. I would like to know if these are symtoms because I have a cancer survivor son, I don t want my stupidity jeopardize him. Please be honest, are these symtoms.

Having thrush and sore throat is not always a symptom of an immune compromised state it could be an infection as such although in case of std and hiv prevention is better than care. So practice safe sex and be away from all 5he worries and just don't worry.
