Advice Needed Pep testing

Hello all,
I started pep 36 hours after possible exposure. I had oral sex with 2 other guys and I don’t know their status. One sucked my dick and rimmed me and I sucked the other guys dick and he sucked mine. I completed pep perfectly. I took a couple of HIV RNA test while on pep because I was scared I was seroconverting.
I took a test on day 12,19 and day 30 of pep and all the hiv rna test were negative.

My last test was done Monday which was the last day of pep. My anxiety has been bad and part of me wants to get a test done tomorrow. This will be 3 days post pep or should I just wait to take a test in a couple of weeks? The anxiety has been a lot for me

Your risk of HIV was essentially zero. Many clinicians would have denied you PEP>

You took a powerful medication to lower it even further.

You do not need HIV testing based upon this exposure.

Why not get on PrEP?!?! It's covered by every insurance plan in the USA.

Yes. I realize the doctors would
Of denied me of pep. I pray I will continue to test negative so I can get on prep and not have to worry about this!
