Anxiety Overload

I've been on this website for the past six weeks.  A common denominator is anxiety and whether it can mimic illnesses.  I found this website outside of the US but thought it might be helpful to others.

Just one thing on the dry mouth, I also read that this is a symptom of later stage HIV, just before AIDS.  NOT a symptom of acute HIV infection.

Yeah cheers.

My dry mouth has gone away now, and my dry mouth did coincide with my most anxious stage since my possible infection.  So there is a good chance it was due to extreme stress and anxiety!

when i found out dry mouth was a symptom i had dry mouth for like 2 weeks.  As soon as my anxiety went away after i tested negative i havent had dry mouth since.  Once you test negative im sure your dry mouth will go away.

Yeah, severe stress and anxiety can also cause pretty much all the symptoms of seroconversion.  This is what I am hoping is causing my symptoms!  

Along with my symptoms, I had an extremelly dry mouth for over a week, which coincided with my ulcers and sore throat!  So hope this is what was causing them!
