hiv/aids scare

my friend is terrified. Had sex with this guy a year and 3 months ago and the condom broke. she tells me he was in her for about 3-5 minutes before she 'felt him'. what is sacring her is the itching she has inside her chest and rash on one side of the throat but, no pain. this has started like a month ago and it is on and off. she also complains of some tingling on hands and feet. i am really worried about her as she is taking b.p. medication and she is terrified of going to check for hiv/aids. i have led her to this site but, she is still very depressed. Are these ARS? what is the risk that she contacted the disease? i am praying for her. someone please help!!!!!!

her "symptoms" sound like anxiety...not hiv.

the only way she will ever know for sure is to test.  sure hope she is not having unprotected sex with anyone else until she knows "HER" status.
