Hi
You have mentioned that you have sore throat and had consultation of 5 doctors and you were also tested negative for HIV.
My advice for you is to consult a ENT specialist who will check for other problems for your repeated sore throat and prescribe sime antibiotics which might cure you.
Regarding HIV test which you are already negative twice which it self is a confirmation that you don't have any HIV and if you are having a further doubt you can undergo NAT( Nucleic acid amplification test) which you can rely 100%.
