You need to make up your mind whether there was penetration or not.

Hi Myheadishurting,

Your symptoms do not sound like the classical ARS symptoms which are high fever, severe sore throat and body rashes. But anyway, 10 weeks is a bit late for ARS symptoms.

However, let's not talk about symptoms shall we? Symptoms diagnosis for HIV is the most useless. The only thing you will gain by looking at symptoms is anxiety?

You are now at 10 weeks post your exposure? Wait for another 2 weeks and perform a HIV test. If negative, that will be conclusive. In the meantime, if your symptoms are bothering you, go see a doctor.
