Symptoms after 30 days

[Tablechair]

I had unprotected oral sex with a hiv positive man 30 days ago. I now have a sore throat which is more painful in the ear when I swallow I have hot flushes but temp seems normal a swollen lymph node which seems related to my sore throat. Is 30 days normal for ars symptoms? I will get tested but I need to discuss this , I'm very anxious and concerned.

HIV is not transmitted by oral sex.

Thanks Teak, i appreciate your comments but my symptoms are textbook. Is 31 days after exposure to late for symptoms to appear? Most reports say 2-4 weeks. My throat is so sore as is my gland and my temp is slowly rising. Thanks in advance

You had no exposure.

Can i still ask is 30 odd days to long for ars symptoms to develop?

[navins]

Symptoms may occur from 2 to 4 weeks from the day if exposure

so my symptoms appeared in the 4th week (31days) Very sore throat swollen lymph node hot flushes but my temp seems to be hovering at 37(relatively normal). Aspirin seems to clear any mild fever and relieve ear and throat pain for a few hours. Does this sound like ars? Worried

[navins]

Symptoms are not considered for hiv diagnosis. Oral sex is safe sex.If u remain concerned u can get tested.

Thanks navins, i will get tested at 6 weeks but would you consider my throat and lymph nodes and slight fever a cause for concern? or coincidental or anxiety

No.ARS usually accompanies with high fever.
