ARS 8 Weeks.

Hi there,

I had sex with a sex-worker 12 weeks ago with a condom.
About 2 weeks after possible exposure i had some rash on all of my body (just after i got from the plane), I thought it was from the food posioning (many people got sick from the food). But okay, nothing more then the rash it went away in 2-3 days.

But then I got some muscle aches after about 7 weeks, I did some research on the net and i saw that it was a symptom of HIV. I started to panic and i got sick short after my panic attacks began. I decided to get tested at 7 and 8 weeks (at 2 different clinics) and it was negative, that calmed me down and i felt allot better ;).

But then I have had some throat panes for more then 1 week now, and i began to panic if I was having ARS and my test was false negative when I got tested. Is that possible?

Im getting tested again in 2 days, 12 and a half weeks after possible exposure..
