Dear Dr.,
I'm 29 male and had unprotected vaginal sex. 2 weeks later I asked the woman about last HIV test. She said I should get tested, that's what a normal person would do! She broke up EVERY contact to me after that.
I started freaking out after:
Exactly 28 days after contact I developed a soar throat and fever (37.9 deg C). At the same time I had a dry cough. The soar throat and fever went away after 2 days. Right after that I experienced bad joint and muscle pain as never had before in my life (hand,feet,elbow,knee). That went on for 8 days. 2 days after fever was gone the dry cough became VERY bad and then liquid that I could cough out with a very badly running nose as I didn't have it for the past 5 years.
One week after first symptom (fever) (5weeks after contact) I obverved first skin rash. The rash shows up as single object (hive). It is itchy in first 15min and always disappears after ~2hours. Every day I observed one single object randomly on my body. It stopped after 12 days. At the same time my body feels very itchy, especially my hands (still)!
2 weeks after first symptom (6weeks after contact) I now have lost ANY appetite. If I see or think of food I feel like vomiting. At the same time my intestine (gut?) feels very sensitive and weird and my stool is very soft (sometimes too soft). Lost 3kg so far.
Now, 7 weeks after contact I have headaches randomly coming and leaving all day. I noticed brown spots (like age spots) on the glans of my penis (not itchy,flat,not lifted, just there). Not sure if they were existent before.
I hardly get out of bed in the morning. I could sleep all day if I allowed myself to.
I had a negative antibody test after 6 weeks and 4 days (don't know what generation).
Please be straight up with me.
1.Are my symptoms alarming?
2.Do ARS symptoms show up typically at the same time or are they delayed in their order?
3.Is my skin rash typical? Is a bad cough, running nose typical?
4.ARS symptoms after 7 weeks?
Best wishes
