question about hiv

[Matanga]

Hi, will HIV acute symptons of pneunomia(with fever) be able to be cured by antibiotics? if doctors take x-ray and tell someone that they have pneunomia, can that be a hiv sympton? or does the acute hiv symptons only have the symptons of pneonomia, but doctors will not actually be able to discover it as pneonomia by x-ray?

Hope someone can clarify,

thanks

Lizzie, Yes, by using the words "acute hiv infection" I was reffering to the ars symptoms that may occur 2-4 weeks after infection.

According to this source: http://www.ehow.com/about_5063607_symptoms-fungal-pneumonia.html

it says "The most common precondition of fungal pneumonia is HIV, meaning that fungal pneumonia is typically accompanied with the symptoms of HIV, even AIDS"

Wouldn't that mean that pneunomia would be considered an ars symptom?

If you have a question about a risk then start a thread and ask it. We don't speak about symptoms because they are general, non-specific and most people don't get symptoms.

And if you read what Lizzie said it answers your question.

Hey lizzie, sorry for hijacking  this thread but is it possible to have ars symptom 1 day after possible exposure that lasts for over 30 days?
Exposure was unprotected sex 7-10 mins
*10hrs later: abdominal inflammation
*4 days later: continued abdominal inflammation along with fever, loss of appetite, weight loss (6lbs in 3 weeks),  lasting 5 days
*Std-panel js all (-)
* I'm going to get tested today but just wanted an insight before I head down to my doctor.

so let me see if you know what you're even talking about.

by "acute hiv symptoms"...are you meaning ars symptoms?  the early symptoms that come at 2-4 weeks after infection?

pneumonia is not an ars symptom.

I'm not asking about my risk..

you never had a risk...kindly move on
