For what ARS...come on. YOU CAN'T USE SYMPTOMS TO GET AN INDICATION OF HIV. This has been said over and over and over again.

thank you Lizze, this is in line with a response I got on same topic a while ago.  However, does it it make a difference is mucus is noticed during bowel movement?

not indicative of ars.

Thank you lizzie for your reply... but i was trying to find out if this is a common symptom for ARS (like flu etc..). I did google but couldnt find much except one post on body where the doctor was saying blood in stool is not an ARS symptom. I just wanted to clarify my doubt.

Could you please help me in understanding if this is one of the common symptoms... I agree blood in stool is very generic and happens to all.. however could it be one of the primary symptoms of ARS if one does have ARS.

Request you to please help.

Thanks & Regards,

ppl can have blood in the stool...with or without hiv.  

if you've had unprotected sex or shared iv drug works...then you need to test to know your status.  hiv is not diagnosed through symptoms.
