Acute HIV Infection?

[BillyG2]

I gave a girl unprotected oral and then we had unprotected vaginal sex afterwards.  I was definitely tested clear before this encounter.  She claims to be clean.  18 days later, I developed a mild sore throat with no fever.  Now on day 20 my mild sore throat persists but with some white patches in the throat, minimal lymph gland swelling, mild joint stiffness, and a mild headache.  Does this sound like acute HIV?  Is a DNA test worthwhile, or do I need to wait the recommended three months to get tested using the antibody test?

This post is from almost 1 year ago. No reason to bring up an old post.

And in 2010 there was no research to say what percentage. That recently came out.

actually 70% of people get symptoms.. check your research

[Vance2335]

No and actually most people don't get symptoms.

Thanks, Vance.  Is there a worsening of any of these symptoms which might indicate an acute infection?  I suppose there's not much I can do about it now anyway.  Just gotta wait two more months and try not to worry about it.  Life goes on!

No it does not sound like it has anything to do with HIV. Antibody test at 3 months.
