Hi there -
No, herpes is not the same thing as HPV, though its easy to get confused.
HPV = human papiloma virus - causes warts and can lead to cervical cancer
HSV = herpes simplex virus - two types - 1 and 2 - 1 can be oral or genital, 2 is almost always genital - causes blisters, sores, lesions, paper-cut sores.
There are two type of hpv as well - high risk and low risk. The high risk kind is what can lead to cervical cancer, and men can have that and have no signs or symptoms.
Those are not any kind of symptoms of HIV. You did put yourself at risk so you should test.
Overall the number is around 6 women without protection in 8 years. I have never had any symptoms. I know that symptoms dont show for a while. The only real symptoms is I get night sweats, but that only started when i got my air conditioner for some reason The last time I had sex without a condom was the first week of May. One of the women I slept with w/o a condom was scottish and she was a lesbian. That was a little over 2 years ago.

Thank you. I will have my test done to make sure i am alright.
just curious... there seems to be a theme here of men (like myself) who had "protected" sex and fear they might have hiv and after testing find themselves to be negative... they post here (as I did) to be reassured about their lack of risk and to trust their results... yet all of them (like me) seem to have symptoms in various degree...
my question is what do you make of this? physcological? or other?
Nevertheless, this result can vary for different cases. Generalized information on HIV symptoms in men after 6 months forms the subject matter of this article.
HIV Symptoms in Men after 6 Months: Facts to Know
To understand the progression of HIV symptoms in men, we've got to analyze symptoms in the first few months (2 -3 months) and then the later months (after 5 - 6 months).

And a general point we have made repeatedly on this forum is that symptoms rarely are reliable indicators either for or against HIV. Even the most typical ARS or AIDS symptoms are nonspecific, i.e. they occur more commonly in other, usually minor medical conditions. If your case, it sounds like you and your partner have had allergies or just an unlucky series of colds.
So you are entirely correct that the answer to your anxiety about this is to be tested for HIV.
