This might be long..so thanks to whoever reads this. I am so worried. I started feeling this way last july..so its been about a year and 3 months. Anyways in july i just started feeling nauseous a lot out of no where. And it keeps happening since then. Also experience random sore throats all the time, and also feel very fatigued most of the time. The past two months have been worse. On top of all that. i have loose stools, and stomach cramps every day. 3 weeks ago i got really sick. threw up, diarhea, night sweats. Ive had lymphnodes uner my jaw and in throat that wont go away for about 2 months now. Have had unesplained severe pain in my neck, and also i get itchy rashes on my body... thats been happening for a while now, i will usually get it on my chest and around my jaw. And sometimes welts. And every now and then the welt will turn into a hard bump...i just dont get whats going on with me. I had unprotected sex in middle of june...and july was when the symptoms started....oooh ya and forgot to mention i have developed a dry cough that ive had for over a month now as well. Any one on here with hiv have these symptoms? I have been tested twice. Once at 5 and a half months after exposure and once about a month ago. Both negative, but im worried maybe its hiv 2 or type o. These symptoms that im having are just too weird..and im scared because i just had a baby boy 3 months ago.Im scared for him.. :( I just dont know what to do. i need advice PLEASE. And do my symptoms sound like hiv symptoms??? thanks so much and god bless.

That wasn't all that long................no prob reading it, well sots of things can mirror other things, meaning illnesses can have the same symptoms as others, sometimes but rarely hiv tests will have false positives or negatives, get tested again and if still neg than I would say you would need to look elsewhere to find what is causing your symptoms, stop having unprotected sex, do you have health ins. or a good clinic? I agree you need to get at the bottom of what's up....................hugs.....................Grant................................

i to suffered from all the hiv symptoms and thought for sure that i had it even though my hiv test was negative all the way up to 9 months so i went to see a I.D specialist and he did a hiv pcr rna test along with hiv elisa antibody test .plus hep a,b,c test and ebv panel test so when i went to get my results 2 day i was convinced that i had it . turns out that it was just mono so if your still worried than you can ask your doctor to do a hiv pcr test . hope this helps
