Sore Throat

[syms]

I want to know how long an HIV sore throat will last and how sever it would be?
I had as you all describe a no risk situation, but want reassurance on a sore throat I had for two days around 20 days after my percived exposure. It was only mild and didn't hurt when swallowing or eating or talking. Just noticable that it was there.

Does this sound typical of ARS?

Move on.

Sure I understand that I have had sore throats in the past and can hear what you are saying its a matter of perception.

I was only trying to gain information of what a sore throat with ARS was like to put my nagging dobts at ease.

Your preception is wrong, once as you change that they you will believe you had no risk, so how is it possible to have symptoms?

And really, tell me how many sore throats have you gotten in your lifetime? Too many to count?

I just dont understand why I had a sore throat exactly 3 weeks after what I percieved as an exposure. I know it is easy to write off this thread and say you had no risk, but it would put my mind at ease to know that I would have had other symptoms with my sore throat or It would have lasted longer than two days and would have been servere.

You did not have a risk. Simple as that. In general we don't discuss symptoms and we are not going to discuss symptoms from a no risk situation.
