Various HIV Symptoms, extremely anxious and terrified.
Hi there, i am a 27 year old male, currently living in Australia. I went to China at the end of January this year and got back to Australia at 1st March. During the stay, I had sex with 7 sex workers. It was all unprotected oral sex + protected vaginal sex with condom. Every time after sex, I went to clean my self in shower. the latest encounter was at 27th Feb. The sex worker is a bit suspicious. She got many red bump over her back. I thought it was just pimples, so I didn't take it seriously.
After I came back to Australia, many strange symptoms occurred.
In the first week roughly, I realized I have 10 itchy red bump on my arms, legs and chest. they look like mosquito bites but have a very tiny red spot(same size as needle) in the middle. It's slightly raised and a bit itchy. After a day or two, they became flat and brown.
In the second week, I went to play basketball with friends. After that, I felt a bit feverish. From that time until now, I am always having reoccurring low grade fever. I measured a few times and realized that my body temperature were from 37.1 to 37.5. At the same time, my eyes felt warm and my mouth was often dry.
In the third week. the low grade fever was still there, sometimes It was gone but sometimes it came back. I had minor diarrhea for around 3 days, then I took some Norfloxacin and the diarrhea was gone. But my bowel was very noisy sometimes.
In the fourth week and fifth week. The feverish feeling was still the same. Dry mouth, dizzy sometimes, often feeling sick after dinner, some times i have appetite sometimes I lost it, two more red spot on my arm, some small red bump on the inner end of the tongue, sore throat sometimes(but I am a smoker, I often have sore throat) and loud bowel movement.
I used to be healthy and I didn't have any drug use history.
I have been terribly scared for the recent 4 weeks . I don't know what can cause all these things except HIV.
I will be extremely grateful if anyone can give me some suggestion ,prediction or anything.
