how Long it takes for Symtoms to show up

Hi,

I have a question. App. how long does it take for symptoms to show up after exposure? e.g. 4 weeks, etc.

I am asking because ppl. on this forum become paraniod like myself and start thinking of everything being related to ARS symtoms.

The one who told us this stroy is a very envious one. He inteneded frightening me, and I admit he was able to do so. It was a stupid story which he told me on liquer table. I will test on the 77th day (after two weeks) to kill all these fears.

i'd really like to hear the rest of the story that your friend told you.   exactly HOW did this person, infected with hiv, "supposedly" transmit it to his family members?  was he having unprotected sex with everyone?  was he sharing needles with his children?

you ARE part of the 99.99% of those experiencing anxiety.   want to prove it?  stick around...you will start to develope every symptom in the book.

you did not get hiv from the bj that you posted about.

and why we all get symptoms imediately after our exposures? Although i have hundreds of unprotected anal and vaginal encounters with women, I never felt scared like this time. This time one of my friends blamed me for this encounter because I am married, and started telling me a story about somebody who was infected with HIV and transmitted it  to his familly members. SO 99,99% OF US ARE EXPERIENCING ANIXETY, NOTHING ELSE.
But do you think guys I am one of the 0.01%  ?
