ars without fever

[superstressd]

Is it possible to experience ars without having a fever? I have been diagnosed with oral thrush and i have a rash on my arm, but my temp has stayed normal the whole time. This hapened 8 days afer possible exposure and has been going on for more than a week now. I know i had a very low risk exposure (protected sex with csw, hiv staus unknown), but im still freaking out. Could this be ars?

My girlfriend is in school to become a registered nurse and in her medical book i looked at the HIV section and it gave a table and percentages for symptoms. It said that fever which was the highest percentage was at 97%, then it went down the list with the percentages for other symptoms. Rash was like in the middle of the table, i forget what percentage that was but there were other symptoms that had a higher percentage than a rash but abviously the fever is the highest one at 97%

No ! ARS always comes in a package having fever (102-104 F) and rashes being the essential contents of the package. Do not focus too much on symptoms, they do not mean much
