This is Dr. Herisa P. reading carefully your concern.
As you may know HIV can be transmitted by any contact of the blood, or mucosa and blood, or unprotected sex etc. Trying to overload yourself with many doubts in this moment is useless. Screening for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection is really important, since infected individuals may remain asymptomatic for years while the infection progresses. Serologic tests are the most important studies in the evaluation for HIV infection such as ELISA assay. So I suggest you should performe this examination, but in your case it should be done 2 times consequenltly which means the first time then after 3 months should be repeated in order to obtain a reliable result.
Best regards
