From last a couple weeks I suffered from following:
1) Started (12/23) with eye irritation / infection (Went off after a week by using drops prescribed by eye doctor)
2) Taste buds started turning white (12/23) with light white coating on the tongue (Still persist) no pain
3) Slight head ache
4) Slight cold
5) No sour throat
6)small dots on upper lip
7) Feels like fever but no temperature. Body pains, unable to sleep (It's gone after 2 weeks)
8) Tongue has swollen little bit for almost 10 days now. No pain
9) Penile became small all of a sudden with painless small dots (could be due to anxiety) One doctor told that I developed hernia and other mentioned could be due to lack of hormones

Do you think I am suffering from or getting chance of HIV?
Doctors performed lots of tests and everything is negative as of now. I am mainly scared of HIV and any un-curable disease.
How accurate is DNA test?I mean is there any change people who got negative turn to positive after 3 months? I have not tested from one moth after rapid test.

PCR-DNA test are not approved of diagnostic use. You can obtain your conclusive test result 3 months post exposure.

[Stephen_raj]

I developed white spots on tongue after 3 weeks and light grey rashes on penis after 4 weeks. is it HIV symptom?

[Stephen_raj]

No pain with both the symptoms though.

[Stephen_raj]

Spots in mouth are more like swollen taste buds.

Thanks,

[Vance2335]

No it has nothing to do with HIV.

[Stephen_raj]

Thanks. Based on symptoms I faced, do you think I am leaning towards getting HIV?

[Stephen_raj]

I am also loosing some weight around 3 lbs in 3 weeks. and getting eyes started paining when I get up. After that it goes normal.

[RainLover71]

NO,you have not had any of the 3 classic ARS symptoms.Just test at 12 weeks and collect your conclusive result.

[ScaredINbeirut]

Rain lover.  Why are the three classics

[ScaredINbeirut]

De Eros one and sore throat.    And?

[ScaredINbeirut]

Oops I meant fever and sore throat

[Vance2335]

We don't speak about symptoms because it causes too much anxiety in people.

Also ScaredINbeirut, if you have a question start your own thread.

based on following like:

______________________________________

"Hairy" leukoplakia of the mouth is an unusual form of leukoplakia that is seen only in people who are infected with HIV, have AIDS, or AIDS-related complex. It consists of corrugated, fuzzy, hence the name "hairy," white patches on the lateral borders of the tongue and less frequently elsewhere in the mouth. It may resemble thrush, an infection caused by the fungus Candida which, in adults, usually occurs if your immune system is not working properly, and may be one of the first signs of infection with the HIV virus.  Unlike thrush, it is not easily scrapped off. It is painless, but patients occasionally complain of its appearance and texture.

Causes :

Irritation from rough teeth, fillings, crowns, or ill-fitting dentures that rub against your cheek or gum
Chronic smoking, pipe smoking, or other tobacco use
body's reaction to the Epstein-Barr virus (responsible for mononucleosis)
Sun exposure to the lips
Oral cancer, although rare
HIV or AIDS
Symptoms:

White or gray colored patches on your tongue, gums, roof of your mouth, or the inside of the cheeks of your mouth.
This patch may have developed slowly over weeks to months and be thick, slightly raised, and may eventually take on a hardened and rough texture.
Painless but may be sensitive to touch, heat, spicy foods, or other irritation.
Diagnosis
__________________________________________________________

I do have a painless slightly swollen tongue. That is my main concern. Does this pertain to HIV? Does anyone had this in past?

[Teak]

Symptoms or lack of will never tell you your status. Obtain your conclusive test result 3 months post exposure.

[Udasin]

Small dots at upper lip may be a symptom of HSV1....U can test Anti HIV and IgG test after three months of Exposure....

[Stephen_raj]

Now I only have following symptoms:
1) Early stage of "Hairy" leukoplakia
2) Fungus on penis
3) slight pain on right side groin
4) Male hormone imbalance.

Are they any signs of HIV?

Thanks,

[RainLover71]

NO.From a study conducted in Australia about what was the most common symptom an HIV infected person experienced,very High fevers was at the top of the list.As you already know,a test result is the only way to know your status.

[Stephen_raj]

HIV RNA test results at 40 days came back negative. Is it a good sign?

Thanks,

[RainLover71]

Excellent sign but follow up at 12 weeks for a 100% conclusive result.So far so good.

[Teak]

A pcr-RNA test has to be used in conjunction with an antibody test.

[Stephen_raj]

Thank you for the reply. They did antibody along with RNA and it is negative too.

[Teak]

Your 3 month post exposure test will be conclusive.

[Stephen_raj]

Is neck pain and ear pull symptom of HIV? I am getting neck pain in the evening times recently.

Thanks,

[Stephen_raj]

All of a sudden my whole body started itchy not sure what the issue is.

Thanks,
