Hi Doc...you do a great service to all of us out here, and I applaud your patience and knowledge. I'll try to keep it short.
On January 1st, I had unprotected sex with a woman. (I am a man). I did not ejaculate inside her. This woman and I had a discussion about her STD history before we had sex and she said she was "fine" but I guess you never really know. Additionally, the girl was on the final day of her period, and removed her tampon prior to sex. I did not see any blood on my penis after sex. (But WHAT was I thinking!!)
Now, 9 weeks later, I am as sick as I have ever been. I have a fever of 101 degrees, stiff neck, dry cough, diarrhea, chills, sweats at night - the whole thing. My doctor said it's a "flu-like" virus and I just need to grind it out, but I am worried that these could be ARS symptoms. What are your thoughts? Is 9 weeks too late for ARS to begin? If I was going to have the ARS illness, would it have happened already? Do these even sound like ARS symptoms? Any knowledge you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
