*Home>>>HIV Symptoms

Has anyone had these symptoms?/What do you think these symptoms are? Thank you.?


1. The prickly "pins and needles" feeling all over your body. It is on and off.

2. Severe headache that comes when you get stressed/annoyed/worried

3. Just a tiny bit of sore throat that wasn't severely sore and only lasted 2-3 days

4. A few tiny, spaced out, red pimples on the thighs. (They do not hurt or itch at all) (By the way, would you call that a rash? What really is a rash?)

Are these symptoms just from heat, stress, or worse: an STD or HIV?


I will go to the doctor. Just want some opinions b/c I'm pretty scared. I appreciate your help. Thank you.

I really don't think I'm a hypochondriac.lol. If I am, I just started today.lol.

1. Prikley pins and needles all over the body
This is due to the less oxygen in your body, basically your body is telling you your cells are dying through less oxygen. This is due to homeostasis ( keeping everything the same). It needs to give you pins and needles so your body will keep everything the same, and stop you from dying or been seriously ill. This can be stress related. Pins and needles can also be a sign of parkinsons disease or ms ( multiple sclerosis) which means your cells are dying and you cant move effectively. Dont worry this is mostly down to stress, or just that you are not getting enough oxygen in your body it will get back to normal this seems the problem as it goes on and of.
2. Severe Headache that comes when you are stressed and annoyed or worried
The headache is cause by worry it also can be caused by hormones in general. This again can be induced by worry, stress, or if you are annoyed. This is a natural bodily function. Once again just to keep your mind at rest is to go up the doctors to get it checked out. but to me that is natural.
3. Just a tiny bit of sore throat that wasnt severly sore only lasted 2-3 days
This is just a viral infection this is caused when foreign bodies like dust goes down your throat and cant be shifted by coughing it builds and builds up until an infection occurs. This is what causes your sore throat it lasts 2-3 days cause this is your body fighting the infection of so you can get better. This is totally normal
4. A few tiny spaced out red pimples on thighs ( they do not hurt or itch at all)(By the way, would you call that a rash? What is really a rash?)
Pimples hormone realted all women get them a rash is not pimples, a rash itches and hurts you, it makes you feel sick, this is not due to worry, stress or annoyance it is to do woth hormones.

None of these symptoms really are from heat or stress, none are as worse as you think. If you are worrying you may have an std or hiv i suggest you get up the doctors you need help mentally as well as physically.

Your doctor will prbs get fed up of you, why bother ya doc when there is nothing to worry about. Your scared you need couselling the only thing worng with you i would say is that you may is a hypocondriact ( makes things up, worrys bout everything civil).
Definition of Hypocondriact
Hypochondria (or hypochondriasis, sometimes referred to as health anxiety/health phobia) refers to an excessive preoccupation or worry about having a serious illness. Often, hypochondria persists even after a physician has evaluated a person and reassured him/her that his/her concerns about symptoms do not have an underlying medical basis or, if there is a medical illness, the concerns are far in excess of what is appropriate for the level of disease. Many people suffering from this disorder focus on a particular symptom as the catalyst of their worrying, such as gastro-intestinal problems, palpitations, or muscle fatigue

Hope i helped and get some help please for you own sake
mate your in trouble

gd luck

I think some of your symptoms are unrelated. The first two are probably anxiety, the 3rd one was probably just viral and going away and the bumps could be from heat, shaving etc....
BTW: it doesn't sound like AIDS or an STD. Don't worry!

these symptoms are all unrelated. I'd say stress and heat are the reasons for them. The only one I'd worry about is the full-body tingling. For the headaches, take an over-the-counter pain reliever such as tylenol, and reduce your stress. For the pimples, they're just pimples or ingrown hairs, nothing to worry about. For the sore throat, it was just a virus.

i think your a very paranoid person. they dont sound related. 1, pins a needles, arent even a symptom to anything, 2, you get headaches when your stressed or worried, if its constant, and i mean NEVER go away then go to the doctor. 3 you can get a sore throat by taking a asthma inhaler and not drinking water after, and if your throat is dry. and 4, you get pimples, its normal. if when you press on them and they disappear, then your ok.

if your worried about a STD, then see a doctor cos you really wouldnt know if you had one.
and please stop being so paranoid.

dont worry its probably just heat and stress. number four might be from shaving or rubbing. If you want to go to a doctor than you can, just to be on the safe side.

i don't mean to be rude but are you over weight. because those all seem to be weight related problems. I get alot of red bumps because my thighs rub together and in the summer months its worse because i wear shorts. The tingly arms are also weight related because the lack of circulation of blood. because when your bigger it takes more for your heart to pump the blood to your whole body. They head aches could be anything, dehydration, not eating enough, etc. It summer and the heat can make our body do crazy things. Again hope i didn't offend you, hope it helps.
