Hi, I had unprotected sex six months ago. Next day after that, I got really worried about HIV. Two weeks after that, I began to experience symptoms. First, enlarged lymph nodes under my jaw. Two weeks more, and began to feel pain in my legs (later my Dr said they were neuropathies). A month later, enlarged lymph node in the left side of my neck under my ear. Some weeks later, night sweats (for a week or so), and then an herpes-like infection on one side of my tongue (painful for a few days). Then some rash (a single itchy dot in one arm lasting for two days). Then shaking hands and legs (I couldn't write on a PC!). I couldn't sleep (almost) for months! Nor work or live. I was terrified, in extreme state of anxiety (crying almost every day). I'm married and have two kids. I was terrified of having destroyed my family. But all my HIV test have come negative so far! Including a 4th generation test at three months, a quantitative PCR test at four months, and the last one a 3rd generation ELISA at six months and an antibody test for HCV also at six months. I steel have some strange symptoms like numb feeling in two fingers of my left hand, some inflammation under my tongue and some painful scares in the roof of my mouth, some strange sensations in my legs (I also had one day diarrhea and now I have some flue). I'm taking psychiatric medicine to cope with my anxiety (I'm better now), and I can sleep now and have a more or less normal life. But I'm still wondering what could had happened to my body!?!?!?!?!?!?!?? I had a general blood test, and the only abnormal thing the Dr found was an elevated reactive protein C (normal level is less than 0.8 g/ml and I had 6 g/ml), but every thing else was normal. I do not know if I have to still worry for HIV or what?
Thanks a lot for your help!
Jose
