PLEASE HELP!!!!

by chad32, Oct 09, 2008 01:51PM
i'm a 24 year old male and i had unprotected sex about 9 weeks ago.. I started having symptoms a month and month a half later at 6 weeks (one swollen lymph node in neck and atleast 5 or 6 swollen lymph nodes in the armpit all on he same side).. The swollen lymph nodes was confirmed by my doctor.. I felt a bit of nausea and some times vomitted and i had diahriah once.. And i've had a like a red blotche on my chest for about 2 months since my possible exposure.. At 7 weeks all the symptoms went away exept the swollen lymph nodes in my armpit.. I got tested at this time ( at 7 weeks) it was negative.. At this time the swelling in my armpit has went down but i can still feel the lumps and now the swollen lymph node in my neck has returned... Can anybody make sense of this please before i lose my mind.. And is my 7th week test even worth anything...

your 7 week negative is a good indicator or your status...and it is unlikely that it will change.  follow it up with a test at 3 months for a CONCLUSIVE result.

having symptoms "starting" at 6 weeks is not indicative of hiv.  the only way to know is to test!!!!

symptoms are not an indicator of hiv.

here are mine:

aching all over
fatigue
ulcers in my mouth
night sweats

if i google them...it would take me to hiv sites.  guess what?  I DONT HAVE HIV.
