Serious Symptoms and High Risk!

Hi,

Im very worried that i have HIV1 rare group or HIV2.

Below is my history:

I've had unprotected sex with a female stranger and also two days before that a Malaysian prostitute which i think the condom might have slipped.

One week after exposure i was having symptoms of:
Low grade fever, chills, serious fatigue, diarrhea, bad night sweats

I then got scared and test at 11th day after exposure and the results were:
Herpes 1: positive, Chalymedia: postitive, HIV&SEP: negative. Whats alarming is that only my lymphocytes changed and dropped by 35% which is 21% of total WCC, this is compared to 3 month ago.

My symptoms got better for two week, but then at three weeks after exposure i was getting the same symptoms along with a skin rash. The rash is small red dots, some are raised and some are inside the skin. The rash itches when touched. I got a swollen lymph gland on right side of neck.

Soon after i started to have sticky saliva and white fur tongue, along with all the other previous symptoms.

I got tested again at 43rd day. The AG/AB test was negative and they also did a Plasma PCR RNA test for HIV1 only and was undetectable.

Those symptoms have gone away at the 8th week after exposure and came back again at 10th week. So now im getting brown flat rash (not many around neck), a very swollen lymph node (the size of a large bean) at the middle of right neck, i got diagnosed with bacteria conjunctivitis with my eyes, i got 3 large ulcer in mouth along with few smaller ones inside bottom lips... i feel like going to toilet after every time i eat and during night.

I feel that my immune system has been compromised and something must be very wrong with me.... so what are the chances that its a rare HIV1 or most likely HIV2?

Yeah... thats why im so scared.. i dont think its 100% accurate.. I read on Jap gov sites that 3 month is for hiv1 and hiv2 is 3~6 month window period.

Im going to test again on 2nd of Jan... and fingers crossed....

It might be why the cdc in America says that 3% of people might take longer than 3 months to produce antibodies.I don't know how current that information is or how conservative they might be.

You are not being treated for an immune disease or you wouldn't be playing on the computer. Accept your negative result or seek professional mental help to find out why you won't accept your results.

Hi,I think people turning positive after a 3 month negative result is a thing of the past.I have researched rare cases in the 1980's but that's all.
