oral ulcer and acute HIV?

[californiadreaming]

I had unprotected sex around early January and a few weeks later developed a mouth ulcer.  I have never had a mouth ulcer before and was wondering if this could be a sign of an acute HIV infection.  I dont' have any of the other symptoms...no fever, rashes, sore throat, swollen lymph nodes...etc.  

does anyone have any suggestions.  It's not three months yet so I can't get tested.

Note: At the time of diagnosis  with HIV, many people have not experienced any symptoms.

Any of the following symptoms may occur:

    * fever
    * headache
    * fatigue
    * malaise
    * decreased appetite
    * swollen lymph glands
    * muscular stiffness or aching
    * generalized rash, usually flat to slightly raised (maculopapular) and red
    * sore throat
    * mouth and esophageal ulcers

I was just a bit confused because if i searched oral ulcers and HIV on the internet it was sometimes listed as a symptom of ARS, although not the most prevalent one.  I wonder if anyone else has ever had this problem.  Sometimes it would be included on the list...other times it wasn't....thank for all of your responses though!

Oral ulcers are classic anxiety symptoms and has nothing to do with ARS in your case, you had unprotected sex, you need to test the previous poster has told you what to do. All I want to add up here is that a 6 week negative changing ahead is very unlikely.

Good luck
