to quote the website, "Many people do not develop any symptoms when they first become infected with HIV. Some people, however, get a flu-like illness within three to six weeks after exposure to the virus. This illness, called Acute HIV Syndrome, may include fever, headache, tiredness, nausea, diarrhoea and enlarged lymph nodes (organs of the immune system that can be felt in the neck, armpits and groin). These symptoms usually disappear within a week to a month and are often mistaken for another viral infection."
I wouldnt worry so much about the HIV, unless you've been infected a while before her. HIV takes a while to show up in your system enough to even be read in a blood test let alone, instant symtoms.. thats why before you take blood tests they say, for best results its best to have been free from sexual actions for lke 4 months.... i mean dont quote me on any of this, i just thought i would help ease your mind a bit until the Dr responds to you
P.S. haveing sex with strippers/hookers lol not the greatest idea in the world
Wish you the best of luck
