Frequently getting sick? HIV symptoms???

[Jaydee24]

About 6 or 7 months ago, I had a possible exposure to HIV (both protected & unprotected vaginal intercourse with oral) by a person with an unknown status. We had sex multiple times. 1) About 6 weeks into our "relationship", I had caught a cold & so did he and the symptoms were pretty mild (sore throat that lasted for 2 days, nasal congestion, runny nose & dry cough). I thought I got sick from not dressing appropriately on a very cold day (exposed neck and super thin jacket) but idk. I broke off the relationship during the last week of August. 2) On October 17th, I fell extremely ill and was taken to the hospital. Turns out I had UTI/Kidney infection for months and didn't realize it but soon got that treated with antibotics. 3) Thanksgiving week went by and I soon caught a severe sore throat along with cold-like symptoms. I immediately thought I had mono but got examined and i turned out to have strep throat & a viral infection. I took antibiotics and the symptoms went away immediately. 4) Mid January, I had no sickness & I discovered I had 2 swollen glands, one on each side of my neck. 1cm-2cm, so they're far from extreme and I can feel them but idk how long they have been there and idk if they're supposed to be like that. They have never went away and they're still there today. 5) early February, I started suffering from allergies that turned into a bad sinus infection/cold. The symptoms were a sore throat that lasted for 2 days, bad nasal congestion, constant clear phlegm that later turned yellow, pain on my nose area and dry cough. This lasted for a week. 6) Late February, I'm feeling sick again and it started with a sore throat, nasal congestion, pain on the roof of my mouth, runny nose, clear/yellow mucous and occasionally sneezing.


Symptoms I've experienced:
Sore throat (along with cold & sinus infections)
Swollen glands in neck (shotty)
Fatigue

What I HAVE NOT experienced:
Fever
Joint/muscle pains
Rash
Diarrhea/vomitting
Weightloss
Night sweats

I'm getting tested for the first time next week and I'm completely terrified :(

No, I don't get multiple colds and my sinus infections are not any different. Colds and Sinus infections have nothing to do with HIV.

So is it normal for people with HIV to get multiple colds/sinus infections after 3 months or does it just happen after a few weeks after exposure?

I don't know who told you that but it was incorrect.

  In an adult, a positive HIV antibody test result means that the person is infected, a person with a negative or inconclusive result may be in the “window for 4 to 6 weeks but occasionally up to 3 months after HIV exposure. Persons at high risk who initially test negative should be retested 3 months after exposure to confirm results

I was told to test after 6 months to get conclussive results. I guess I could have tested last month but I wasn't worried about it then. My boyfriend tested for all STDs, including HIV after 3 months and his came negative and he's also the last person I've slept with. Is that conclusive and does that mean I'm ok too?

You could have tested months ago and received your conclusive test result.
