Hi

Hi Everybody,

I had Unprotected oral sex / Protected vaginal sex 4 months back  & also did test for HIV (Elisa) at 3 Months which came negative . I also was diagonised for Herpes and that was positive. Since HIV came back negative I left bothering about and proceeded with my life. But I still have pains in my joints and also my throat as well as penis is red always.
What can this be? I checked with ENT for my throat & he diagonised & said there is not swollen lymph nodes. .but my groin area is a little painful & also I feel I have lost some 2-3 Kgs of Weight?
Can this be because of Herpes Virus that is present in the body? or is it more serious?

Because you didn't have a risk of contracting HIV and you have a conclusive negative result which shows you have never had an exposure.
