3 months post exposure and you were already advised of it.
i have got my results and it was negative, i am happy now but still have got a few doubts.
could the first symptoms be HIV symptoms and now my swollen lymph nodes would be a normal COLD ?
do i need anymore test?
the doctor said it is enough actually and you are okey
No symptoms don't come go and then come back.
no it will be out 2 weeks from now... what do you think? can some symptoms go away then somthing like lymph node come back after a week.
actually i am not sure which week it was exactly when i had test.
my unprotected intercourse was on February 11th and my test was on March 12th.
now i started this swollen lymph nodes from March 25th...
i think swollen lymph nodes always hurt. .
Actually no, swollen nodes rarely hurt.
You need to quit overthinking this.
Are you 5th week result out yet?
You thought wrong. Swollen lymph nodes with ARS do not hurt.
it doesnt hurt? REALLY?
i think swollen lymph nodes always hurt.
You aren't having ARS symptoms. ARS symptoms come on 2-4 weeks post exposure and last 1-2 weeks and swollen lymph nodes with ARS don't hurt. You can obtain your conclusive test result 3 months post your LAST unprotected anal or vaginal sex.
hello i had my test of 5th week.
for one week i didnt have any symptoms and i was okey and didnt think about the HIV at all was living in peace and waiting for my HIV results.
but now i started pain for Lymph node.
could it happen? the symptoms go away but then come back again?
P.S : i had sex on February 11th.
please help me i started getting nervous again...
i would like to go throw myself out of window...
Symptoms are not the best way to diagnose HIV. 5 weeks test results are a good indicator and not likely to change. Dont worry.
i had sex on mondy. 4 week later on sunday night i had a little fever ( actually i went out in cold weather after shower and that's my only hope of FLU )
Monday morning ( which was exactly 4th week ) i was kinda okey but in the afternoon my fever got higher than sunday.
Tuesday it was worse and Wednsday was the day i couldnt get out of my bed because of fever and headache ( whenever i had flu i was like this and even worse )
so test on 5th would be for sure? it is not going to be very different from the week 6th and 8th?
"but exactly at the week 4th i started fever but it wasnt so serious and i didnt care about it... the day 2 it got worse and the day 3rd i couldnt even get out of my bed" > Can you please be more clear on this. You mentioned at the 4th week you had fever and later on said day 2 and day 3. Do you mean 2nd day after 4th week?
You had unprotected sex, this requires testing,I know it is difficult to wait, get tested as there is no other option.
5 week blood test ideally should not change, however a conclusive test result would only be at or after 12 weeks.
6 months is what was mentioned in the old CDC guidelines, it is 3 months as of now.
