Extreme anxiety panic attack symptoms! Please help!!

[Pascal]

2 days ago I was getting a hiv rapid blood test and my finger was pricked and made me think maybe the prick lancet was already used since I did not see it get thrown away and it was in a resealable bag. NOW 30 mins later after my negative test I began to feel tightness in my arms around my bicep area tensing up as if I was trying to make a muscle to the point it ached and I was sitting down with my hands on my phone worrying and when I got home terrible symptoms happened making me think and still feel I was exposed to a infection. The back of my upper arm was burning and felt super heavy and stiff yesterday AND I could feel a pulse in my arms also and pulse in my forehead and the burning sensation even felt a little in my right leg kinda. Same night I woke up to a ache in my right foot and it was warm/hot and had a pulse now inside of my foot! and even runny nose or would fo 1 cough sometimes. My heels are warm and feeling a pulse time from time still. I woke up today and my upper back or neck had this stiffness or discomfort with slight warmth and now feel a pulse in the back of my head or neck that's faint and feel like my feet are over becoming warm out the blue mostly my right foot. I just wanna know if this is normal or anyone else experience this at a critical moment? is it normal for muscle tension after stress release or feelings of doom?muscles tensions, aches, burning sensations, pulses throughout your body, Cough, runny nose, Ect. I am even more worried since the hiv symptom peripheral neuropathy is associated with this but it has only been hours after my paranoid exposure that is probably not even a risk. Please need any advice to explain what's wrong with me or if this can be possible or for sure a anxiety attack or panic. can these things even last for 2 days straight? any advice or answers will be appreciated...

Hi Pascal,
I can tell you one thing to ease your mind and that is that lancets can only be used once and then the don't work anymore. So there isn't any chance that they used it on someone else. Anxiety and panic can make you hyper aware of every little thing that goes on in your body and can also create physical symptoms so I would say I think you're good. Have you had problems with anxiety before or is this new?

I have had palpitations and stiff neck pain from stress in the past but never severe burning in the arm with a pulse in it or tension in the muscles. Also my right upper arm with he burning sensation, heavyness and pulse inside that area is he same area I was straining maybe a day before the test because I was taking a pic of my shoulder tat. Could stress reactivate pain or strain in caused the area without knowing? And thanks but the lancets were in a plastic bag and didn't see mines get thrown away so it gave me this intensed worry even after experts saying hiv cannot surive even reused lancets. I do not know what this is and I am tired of this paranoia and stress if it is stress. Please. tell me if got to be because I sm sure I cannot even get hiv symptoms within 24 hours let alone nerupathy ones that is said to occur later in years of having it. Is this just my anxiety causing my body these symptoms? My neck and back of head is pulsing as I type this and the warmth sensation in my feet usually happens when I lay or my back and think of the symptom and my arm burn and tension disappeared since yesterday ..
