Question on symptoms.....Are they typically persistent and more than one at a time? I am at 10 weeks post encounter and I have had some mild fatigue, headaches and a sore neck and back. No noticable jaundice, no diarhea (diarrhea), no dark urine or clay colored stools. I will add that I have been extremely stressed about the whole thing as I am married and it was a huge regrettable mistake, First time other than with my wife. I have extreme guild and possible anxiety. My symptoms may be associated with that...not sure . Your thoughts? I did receive a blow job during the same encounter and tested neg at 3.5 weeks for syph, gon, chlam, and hiv. I tested for hiv again at 7.5 and still...thank God was neg. Thanks again for your thoughts and advice. It means a real lot.
