Getting sick with diarrhea in 4 1/2 days is too soon to be consider an hiv symptom?

I got sick with a sore throat- runny nose- the usual cold thing except I had  diarrhea for one day at work- 4 1/2 days after unprotected sex isn't an hiv symptom is it?

four days are way too early to develop any symptoms by the way for your info anxiety can also cause the same.

That's good to hear. I wasn't having anxiety in those days following the unprotected sex. But right now I'm experiencing some anxiety over waiting for my test result and I am having to go to the bathroom a little more than usual.

Does pimples starting 6 days after the unprotected sex sound like a bacteria infection or an hiv symptom? It wasn't on my torso- it was on my butt cheeks.

you cant indicate any thing with the help of symptoms, illness like diarrhea, rashes etc are caused due to several other reasons only HIV testing can tell you whether you're infected or not
