Thanks for ur post. I did have flu like syptoms about a month after I had sex with this girl. It only lasted a day but I was throwing up and had chills the whole day. At first I thought it was something I ate b/c my stomach was upset the night before after I was done with the meal. Then about 3 months ago I had what I thought was an ear infection but the glands in my throat were very swollen for about a week until I started taking antibiotics and then it went away a week after I started taking the meds. I never went to the doctor but I was almost positive that it was an ear infection. I haven't had any flu like symptoms since I have had this rash but could the early symptoms be spread out over a six month period?
Hello,
First of all pls stop worrying as it is not HIV.HIV presents with prodromal features of flu like illness and other symptoms and never itchy rash as its early symptoms.
As your doctor has said,it can be either a dermatitis(contact/sweat/allergic dermatitis) or it can be a fungal infection.
As the rash has gone,pls continue taking the treatment that your doctor has prescribed. Application of calamine lotion will help in soothing the skin.You can also take antihistaminics like benadryl or Claritin to help relieve the itching.This should help.
Take care and pls do keep us posted if you have any additional queries.
