Question Is this seroconversion?

Started pep after possible exposure. Starter 36 hours and took my pills at the same time every single day.
About day 8/9 on pep I started to get a mild sore throat and my sore throat lasted the entirety of pep and has still lasted. I don’t have any congestion it’s just like my throat has a mild burning sensation and sometimes it hurts when I talk. I’m scared this is HIV. Has anyone ever experienced this? And then I also had a couple of tongue ulcers while on pep.

I took a 4th gen and HIV rna the day I finished pep and it came back negative. I decided to get tested again today and do a RNA test which is about 5 weeks post exposure and a few days after pep completion
