I'm going to start by saying that I always practice safe sex, with the exception of oral sex. However, I do also understand that condoms are only 99% affective, and that it is possible for an exposure to still occur regardless of the protective barrier. My concern is that after practicing protected anal sex, with 2 weeks thereafter, I had developed some of the listed HIV symptoms. However, the symptoms didn't all occur simultaneously. The first would be diarrhea for about a week and a canker, then at the weeks end a very low body temperature, and finally currently I have developed yet another canker sore. My question is, would symptoms show up together for them to genuinely be taken into consideration? Also, how relevant are reoccuring canker sores as symptoms of HIV?
