hiv exposure

[nomore88]

I had an hiv exposure about 64 days ago 10 days after exposure I started getting several headaches and back pain at about a month after exposure I starred to feel stomach pain constapation and diarrhea. Also I been feeling a discomfort feeling under my armpits and pain that goes up and down my ribs. I don't feel nothing swollen. I get really bad leg pain after I stand for a while. I had a small cold about 2 weeks ago. Nothing serious. Just nasal congestion and my throat feeling dry but it went away after a few days. I've had no rash or fever no weight loss. I've actually gained weight. I also have really bad gas. Is this consistent with any ars seroconversion symptoms? Please help. I had unprotected vaginal and oral sex with a high risk person

I have tried looking but the only ones they do for free are the ones where they take a little blood from your finger and it takes like 15 min for results. I'm going back on Wednesday and retest again

That's what I'm doing. It's been 9 weeks since my exposure and 7 weeks since I've started feeling like this. Does ars last this long?

Wait for 3 month mark!

I really can't afford any test other than the rapid test. I took one where they draw blood from your finger 2 weeks after exposure it was negative but that's when I found out it was to soon so now I'm waiting  for the 3 month mark for another rapid test. Has anyone had similar symptoms or know of someone? I'm just stressing a lot. I've never felt pain like this. I've read that rash and fever are very common symptoms if I haven't gotten that is there a good chance I didn't catch anything?

The only way to know is to get tested! You can get a conclusive result from a 4th gen AG/AB test 4 weeks after exposure.

Its better to get tested than to speculate on the possibility and cause yourself alot of anxiety.

Stay well
