Hi,
Welcome to HCM.
Somebody (Even a HIV positive) touching your penis with semen on his hand carries a negligible risk for HIV as HIV can not survive outside the body not more than few seconds.
Moreover your negative CMIA HIV test 4 months after the risk activity is highly valid and ensures that you are HIV free. No more test is necessary.CMIA for HIV after 4 month is highly specific and there is no reason for you to get upset.
