Symptoms after ARS ?

Hi, I think i experienced ARS ....Had most of the symptoms but one of the symptoms which
is PN has stayed with me for about 5 months and is not going away.  I feel it everyday ?

Does anyone know if this is normal with HIV .....Or when you get ARS do the symptoms go away and
you should experience anything for quite some time after that ?

It's just really bothering me ....... I haven't tested cos it was a low risk exposure !
I was also told if symptoms continue after the ARS stage they probably not due to HIV ??

Please can some-one help ?

How about you go get tested and know with 100% certainty what your status is rather than guessing on the internet?
