Are there any symptoms of HIV?

HIV Symptoms in 3 days?

• Can HIV symptoms be seen in 3-4 days time. I have read a few such questions but not very definitive. Can someone answer clearly. I had protected sex (I believe) with an escort. She did oral for 4 times with condom and I had sex every time after that. All these 4 times within a span of 3-4 hours. 3 days after this, I suddenly had a severe soar throat. I found it very difficult to gulp. Since then I feel tired and feverish. Today is 4th day and I still feel soar throat, weakness and headache. Are these symptoms really related to HIV. I am very worried. This is the first time I got a pros to enjoy since its been ages I had sex with a gal. My main worries are 1.Not sure if any of the times condom failed. As i remember, they were all intact on my penis while removing. 2. Every time after sex I removed condom and washed my penis and hands. Then she held my penis in her hands till next oral. Not sure if her hands had viral contact from vagina. 3. I once did fingering of the clit and don't remember if I held my penis with same hand. Will these cause transmission possible if she has HIV. I am not sure of it either. She seemed cautious from her side citing a few times that you are respectable person and do not want your life to be spoiled due to carelessness, especially when I asked if it is possible to have oral without condom. Does that mean she had HIV? :( Please can anyone answer if there is any slightest possibility of having symptoms from day 3 and me contracting HIV. I am really worried. Thank you

• Answer:

  first off it is very hard to contract hiv unless you have open cuts or sores anywhere on your body that come in contact with blood or other bodily fluids. Second, On set symptom's of hiv really don't show up for weeks or months but a blood test will show with in a few days to a few weeks if you are positive you body will start making antibodies to the virus. As when they test you their looking for antibodies for the virus and if there detected then you are positive. If the antibodies test comes back negative then they can test using the (Western Blot test) as this test is looking for the virus in your blood stream not the antibodies to confirm test results. Any way go get tested it's the only true way of knowing if you have the virus and if you do have the virus it is not a death sentence like it was 30 years ago when it first started showing up. You can lead a very normal and healthy life as long as you change your life style and habits and stay healthy and protect yourself. As if you are positive and have sex with someone that has a different strain of hiv (mutated strain) you could get really sick go get tested and good luck Feel better . I got tested and it freaked me out waiting for the results but it came back negative and now I know that I'm clean.
