Sore Throat

Good morning everyone.

I was hoping you could help put me at ease with some symptoms I had and now my wife is having.

I origianlly had some sytoms of ARS 3 days after my encounter and then about 3 weeks later had a sore throat and stuffy nose.

Now my wife, 4 days after sex out of nowhere got sick and vomited. She felt OK after the next day. But now 1 week later she started to get a sore throat and a stuffy nose.

1) I know that 3-4 days seems too early for the start of ARS symptoms, but is it possible?

2) Would ARS symptoms stop for a week (or in my case a few weeks) and then a sore throat start?

3) Does a sore throat related to ARS usually have a stuffy nose associated with it? I beleive DR H has said a stuffy nose is not typical of ARS. Any thoughts. Would the stuffy nose associated with the sore throat be a good sign that it is not HIV related?

Thanks again for all of your support through this terrifying time.

Go to this CDC link and see where the CDC says EATING small amounts of HIV infected blood is not a risk. Come back when you've had a risk and after you've sought professional mental help.
