ARS??
Hi Doc,
First I want to thank you for your great work. You have helped me a lot when I have asked about my sitution.
This time I am going to ask for a friend. She had an unprocted sex. After 3 weeks (1/17/10) of that she had fever, sore throat, headach, cough and cold. She took some medicine it. The fever disapperied in one night. But shore throat and cough and cold stayed about 4-5 days. The shore throat normally came during night and went in the morning. And daytime it was fine. It was about 4/5 days.
After 4 days (1/21/10) of fever she had eye discharge which stayed about 2 days.
1. Are these can be ARS?
2. Do all the ARS stay for the same amount of time?
3. Can medicine reduce the duration of ARS?
Obviouly I will ask her to go for a testing after 3 months. But answers to these questions may guide her.
Thanks

Since it deals with HIV, you probably should be posting this in the HIV community.
ARS is Acute Retroviral Syndrome. It is seen normally after 2-4 weeks of HIV transmission. More you can get in http://www.acuteretroviralsyndrome.org/
