looking for some info
Hi, first time here.
I had unproteced vaginal intercourse 16 weeks ago. I met the girl at a club, she has told me there is now way she has hiv, she said she was tested 2 years ago and had a daughter, and has been with the same guy the whole time. I am worried because at 10.5 weeks I started to get a strange feeling in my groin, and that was followed up by a sore throat, with swollen lymph nodes a week later. The doctor put me on antibiotics for 2 weeks. I developed diaharrea and a white film on my tounge. The diaharrea is gone, but i still have whit stuff on my tounge. And for the last 2 weeks I have been extrememly fatigued and have occasional muscle/joint pains. I have been stressing like crazy, and I know strees can screw you up. But I was wondering if 10.5 weeks is to late to experience ars symptoms? And do they happen all at once or come one after another? And would they still be present?
Thank you

yes...10.5 weeks is too late to experience ars symptoms.
ars comes at 2-4 weeks after infection and lasts for 1-2 weeks.
the only way to know your status is by testing.

Thanks for answering so fast. I have one more question.
Is it common to have symptoms show up at 10.5 weeks or does it sound stress induced? Also a rash developed at week 14, this seems to late also, right? And based on what you said they should not last for 5 or 6 weeks, only one or two.
And Iam getting tested after the new year. Thank you for your time.

thanks. I know I have to get tested, but would these symptoms seem to be more stress/anxiety induced or possible hiv? Just wondering your input
