hey Jag,
today I am feeling pin like itching in one of my hand fingers.
It is something like something is there inside my finger.
What abt your symptoms.I also used to get floaters when i was in college and consulted a doctor.He said it could be because of extra pressure (reading,computer,tv,not enough sleep,alcohol etc.)
I followed his advice and its gone in 10 days.Try that man.

I got nothing, man. The thing that truly sucks about this is the limbo we sit in until a 'conclusive' (whatever that means) test.

Hey Jag,
I will just tell you my symptoms,
1-after 4 days extreme fatigue and feeling hot but no fever(as far as I know).This continues for 12 weeks.
2-White tongue after a week or so.White does not mean a normal white coating.it is something like dense white coating.Even after 2 times brushing,mouth wash its not going.from week 13 also having 2-3 ulcers on the tongue.
3-from week 2-10 itching in the body like something is just on my body.specially on upper back.
4-at week 8 got a big pink patch of 2.5 inch on my upperback with two pimples on it.
5-during the week 1-11 no appetite.
6-at week 7-8 got painfull lymoh nodes swollen in my armpit.pain is now gone but swelling is sure there.
7-at week 8 got my lymph nodes swollen below my ears and still has it.
8-got cough from week 13 now clearing up.
So now what you say after all this with 11 weeks negative.
Now I even dont think about comparing my symptoms with ars list..
While replying in one post here I have quoted that symptoms are never a reliable indicator of HIV.
My big symptoms list was the reason for that answer.
I can not understand after using protection why this is so ???
Now I just ignore my symptoms and trying to put my mind on something else.
that is the best way for me !!!!!!!!!!
coz

Symptoms? Hah!
I've had:

Geographic tongue  - almost gone
Discomfort in my abdominal area (conventiently in the spleen / liver area) - still there, comes and goes
Itchiness - 2 weeks after 'exposure' gone now (for the most part)
Pins and needles in my hands and feet (faint) - 5-6 weeks post, gone now
Several (~15) petechiae-like tiny red dots on my body - still see 'em although not looking for new ones
Floaters (stuff outta the corner of my eyes) - started ~10 weeks post, still there
A couple of strange infections (one on finger, one ingrown hair? on leg) - about 2-4 weeks post
Sneezing - about 3-4 weeks post (lasted a week), gone
Nummular exzema (only a few 'rings' occurred between 2-5 weeks after 'exposure')

But I guess none of those are common ARS symptoms...they are all too strange though.
