PLEASE answer me

I had protected vag+anal sex with a sex worker 4,5 weeks ago. After a couple days i started to have a soar throat. Not much, but i felt it. Atfer two weeks the throat got worse.

i went to a doctor, he said it would be fine and didnt give me anytging.

Now, after 4,5 weeks, it is still just as bad. I also have headace some times, but that might of couse be related to stress....

Yesterday night, i woke up and hade to wommit(puke? dont know how u type it). Did that for five times, while having diareha also. At the same time i got a mild fever (again, 4,5 weeks after) - which lasted 16-17 hours. Very mild.

I have no rash.

Im worried to death...

1. is it usual to get a soar throat that early and that it last for 5 weeks?
2. should the fever be more intense?
3. When having an ARS - do all the symptoms come at the same time? I mean, since the fever/throat did not come at the same time.

Please help me.

Ok, thanks. I appreciate it.

But what if i fingered her, and had a little itch/reddish wound (you know how it looks like) close to my finger tip?

Maybe she had her period?

IT was protected.  Regardless of what her HIV status was, you were protected.  You dont have HIV.  Relax.

O.K.  Search my posts.  I have had every symptom and them some.  I had protected sex with a sex worker but had a cut on the base of my penis.  Cut came in contact with vaginal secreations.  I was sick to my stomach, mild fever, bad sore throat, mouth ulcers, etc...  My anxiety levels were outragious!  I mean outragious.  I get my 27 day results back and they came back negative.  I fell better and am praying that they stay negative when I test at 6 weeks.  

My point:  Anxiety can cause every symptom in the book.  It totally crushes your body.  Your mind starts playing games with you and next thing you know you are really sick!  

"Worried sick" is a true statement.
