Suggest Treatment For Severe Sinusitis

Hi there, I was with a guy(he is adamant he is HIV negative) last week and we spontaneously had unprotectected sex. The next evening(friday) I had severe sinusitis or hayfever. It lasted about 3 hours of constant sneezing and then I slept in the same room as someone who was vomiting with a fever on friday. Since saturday to Now i have swollen glands? A sore throat, malaise, body pain, a fever and loud stomach growling. Is this perhaps an opportunistic seroconversion flue? I really do not know what to think. I havent had a chance to get to the doctor. Im not sure if they could even help me currently. Is there any sort of ruling out of the possibility of the HIV infection?
