Brown spots!

Question

I am 6 months out from possible exposure, I have a blood test tomorrow morning at 8am, mainly because of something that has been happening recently.  My health feels great, i'm working out and feel good, but I have these dark brown spots about the size of a pin head that multiply each day.  I would say over the course of 2 weeks ive gained about 50, they look like really small moles but I have no idea.  Is this a symptom of HIV progressing around 6 months after exposure?  Any incite would be great, if not ill ask the doctor tomorrow morning when I go in.

                                                            Thanks!

Thanks, when i think of immune dysfunction, the first thing I think of is HIV, i guess im just closed minded to other possibilities because of the experience that I had.  I fail to take into account that alchohal and some drugs weaken your immune system also.  I guess I'll just ask the doctor tomorrow, thanks.

chris said it has something to do with immune dysfunction, that can be any of a thousand things, hiv would not show symptoms of immune dysfunction in 6 months, relax and ask your dr

The condition that Chris described is something that I have no real experience with. Chris would have to help you with that, as I really have no idea. Sorry, brother.

You said that brown spots are related to immune system break down? Whered you hear that? They just look like little moles but they came outta no where...What do you think? I figured if it was related to HIV it would come around like 15 years after exposure, not 6 months...

Yeah, I don't think that HIV would show signs at 6 months.

I had sex with a lesbian of unknown status, I had a condom on but it was not properly secure throughout the act and i was worried about contracting it from menstraul blood.  I had a 10.5 week negative, but these spots are abnormal for me.  They look like small moles but idk.  I had the ARS symptoms around a month after exposure, muscle aches, sore throat, but then I went to the doctor and had strep.  Any idea on the spots though??  I figured it couldnt have been HIV b/c at 6 months HIV wouldnt show signs...

Firstly, did you have a risky exposure? If not, then the obvious answer is no, these spots are not caused by HIV. Secondly, HIV usually is asymptomatic at 6 months, so even if you had an exposure, it is unlikely that these spots are due to HIV.
