HIV/Aid Exposure
Hello,
I Had unprotected sex with a woman, 4 weeks afterward I got tested , urine and blood drawn, and the tests came back negative. Well a week after that, after getting drunk I woke up with a slight sore throat which developed into a mild fever, I would probably call it a cold.
Should I be worried? Or should I relax and just get another test done?
Thank you

follow up at 3 months for a conclusive result.
(pretty sure you just have a common cold)

THE WINDOW PERIOD IS 6 MONTHS NOT 3!! IN SOME CASES IT WOULD BE 9 MONTHS TOO TO DETECT HIV IN THE BODY!! DEPENDING HOW STRONG AND FIT THE IMMUNE SYSTEM IS IN A PARTICULAR INDIVIDUAL\
I'm not sure what I had. Doc asked me when I last had sex and he proceeded to tell me that its a sewer out there be careful. Then he took my blood. Couple days later, They called and told me I'm negative.
Just a little worried

dont post nonsense regarding something that you are clueless about. it does nothing but confuse ppl.
do you know what kind of test you had? if it was a duo...testing for antigens and antibody both...then it would be a very good indication of your status...but still needs to be followed up at 3 months for a conclusive result.
