First sign of hiv?


first signs of hiv infection

the first sign of HIV is just like having a flu or a cold. if you are concerned get tested. good luck

flu like symptoms... But if you are worried go have a blood test

You will have bumps under your arms

A positive test? IDK.

the flu

If you got tested recently for it, don't forget to get retested again in 3 months. A person may get HIV and not be detect initially. It takes some time before analysis can definitively rule you out. Do a search on seroconversion.

Other than that, you may get little flu-like symptoms at first OR you may aymptomatic for awhile. Talk to your doctor and have repeat tests.

not sure.. possibly a flu . .
but go take a test

mulitple infections or getting sick alot, lost of appetite. If you suspect HIV go get a blood test

symptoms arent reliable in determining if youre infected, you have to go get a test. if you can afford to go to a doctor or are too cheap to pay for the test, go to a free public clinic

They are all right, flu like symptoms, weight loss, sores or ulcers that won't heal. HIV can be dormant(non active) for five years the best way to know is to get a blood test, if it comes back reactive(positive) then there is an additional test they do on the blood to confirm it. But remember being HIV positive doesn't mean you have AIDS.

ur penis swells up like a baloon then pops

The FLU like symptoums, but not like a simple flu, this can be like a strong flu. This will come present (this is called the seroconversion) in the first weeks (The average is like first 4 weeks, but some doctor say this is from the week 2 to 6). This is the symptom of the seroconversion. Weight loss, and all the other things are the symptoms of the avanced HIV.

If u want a make a test for u, u have to wait 3 months.

Sometimes there are no signs, thats why it's always good to go get tested! Diffrent strokes for diffrent folks when it come to HIV Symptoms. I've talked to some people and they say they have no signs at all...while others say they had some of the following:

Abdominal cramps, nausea, or vomiting.
Diarrhea.
Enlarged lymph nodes in the neck, armpits, and groin.
Fever.
Headache.
Muscle aches and joint pain.
Skin rash.
Sore throat.
Weight loss.

Now don't freak out just because you experience some of these symptoms, JUST GO GET TESTED!! Knowing your status is the best thing!!
