Question?
Hello All,
I am a 45 year old married guy with children. I have not had a real sex exposure for over a year and it was protected but I am not real clear if I had a potental exposure years back. I am do believe that I may have had some form of unprotected exposure but its so long ago I really can't be sure.
Lately I have been getting sort of dizzy spells almost everyday around early afternoon. It's almost the same time but not 100% each day and its really a strange and confusding feeling. I also came down with a dry cough a few days later, a sore throat and now have what seems to be a common cold. I also have very strange skin sensations and sensitivity. Seem to tingle and react to sun in almost a burning feeling, something I never experienced before. I have read that HIV attacks the blood, could there have been a major change to my blood causing the dizzy spells and the skin issues?
Please advise.

I see your point but I am not that crazy... :) A simple no, changes in your blood would not cause those signs, I move on. Its 11am and I am starting to get that feeling again, it just about everyday
no one here can diagnose you over the internet. we are NOT doctors.
anyone who is sexually active and has had unprotected sex should test to know there status.
with that said...let me just say that IF you sit around reading about hiv...you will definitely convince yourself that you have it.

Thank you hun! I appreciate the responce. I agree with the sinus infection theory, and will see a doctor this week. But the skin tingle and sensitivity to sun and the dizzy spells (also happen when I am in a room and get warm) are not related to changes in my blood?
dizzy...dry cough...sore throat...sounds like a sinus infection!
see your doctor is you are having health concerns.
