HIV Anxiety
Hi Doctors or to whom it may concern:
I am a gay man and I had sex with gay men last few months ago. In my sexual activities were protected and unprotected. I have had headache & mouth tension since last month. My headache occurs in every other day. And I never had HIV Tested since I had sex. Looking to get answers as soon as possible.
Sincerely,
Patrict.

There is always a risk when engaging in uprotected sexual activity. Specifically anal insertive or receptive intercourse. You cannot determine status solely based on symptoms that can come about because of so many other conditions. Your standard ELISA (antibody) tests will yield conclusive results after 3 months after exposure. There are certain tests that can detect a possible infection sooner. Get tested!
