Dear experts and doctors, I am reaching your help in Asia. The website is so famous in asia and you are doing amazing job here. This is my first time signed up an account and ask for help, cuz I could not sleep or concentrate on anthing else. Here's what happened.
- Unprotected sex happened August 5-10, 2014. (sorry can not remember exact date)
- About two weeks later, fever started, with toothache. Fever lasted about 8 days and toothache about 12 days;
- Early September, When fever and toothache DISAPPEARED (maybe a little bit left), terrible rash began, red circles, spread over faces and arms and body, not itchy. Went to doctors and tried antibiotics etc, didn't help. The situation lasted for about 3 weeks.
- October and November, after 3 weeks of terrible rash, it's getting better,began to feel little bit itchy all over body, but rash with red circles are less.
To summarize, fever started 2 weeks after sex activity, lasted 8-10 days (medium fever, not too high, about 101). When fever is getting much better and began to dissapear, rash began. first 3 weeks was terrible, and from 4th week to now (2 months), rash better, bean itchy, still apparent can be seen by eys.
Doctors and volunteers, my english is poor so I used a lot of words to describe in order for you to understand what was the situation. Sorry about that.
My questions are: 1, from my search results from previous post, fever and harsh are usually come together? and also disappear together? But how about my case? fever started first and 7-10 days later, harsh started and then fever began to disappear. How about the time gap? Is that also highly risk?
2. I know the ARS lasted normally 2-4 weeks. But my rash was terrible (not itchy) for 3 weeks, that matches. But next 1- 2 following months, still have symptons, looks better by eye, but felt itchy. How about this?? Can also be treated as ARS rash?
I understand symptons are not reliable for diagonose purpose. but still have pattern to study and follow.
Teak,LIZZIE LOU,nursegirl, and all doctors and experts, could you all kindly help me and I have been in this for about 3 months now. Greatest appreciation.
