Possible exposure 4+ years ago

Hi! Thanks for taking the time to read this. I'm hoping I'm freaking out of nothing. I had a heterosexual, monogomous relationship with my 1st (and only) partner for 3 years - during this time there were some occasions we did not use condoms however he never ejaculated while inside me, he'd always pull out. We also tried anal for about 20-30 seconds one time and again, no ejaculation at all. He was not an IV drug user (though he did smoke pot and drink) and said he was not infected. We were both 16 and he had also had other female partners before.

My first time was almost 7 years ago now and since then I've been on Accutane with normal blood test results (though I know this does not check for HIV) and normal pap smears and pelvic
exams. I'm soon getting married and all of a sudden cannot help regretting my actions and thinking I might be infected. I have not had any other symptoms. I of course do not remember if I got sick after my first time but I do remember one vaginal yeast infection I had in high school. Nothing recurring and I really only get cold/flu sick once or twice a year tops. ..I'd assume without treatment for this long I'd be a bit sicker by now?

If anything I think I'm looking for someone to tell this all to as I feel I cannot tell my parents or friends for fears of letting them down. I've told my fiance about my fears and he thinks I'm fine. I'd appreciate some advice... I'm sorry for taking up everyone's time and I've researched a lot on my own - I'm just very nervous

Thank you!!
