Symptoms and diagnosis

I had extramarital sex 2 months ago, I have some headache and very mild fever. My wife shows rashes around her eyes and ears. Wevdon't have other symptoms. I'm waiting for test result. Are we infected? I can't sleep.

  1. , I am glad you reached out when you must be dealing with a lot of emotions that keep you from sleeping. There are many reasons for the symptoms you and your wife have. Is there a reason you think you may have acquired HIV?

    There is a lot of misinformation out there about how HIV is transmitted, so this article will give you a good sense for if you should be concerned: https://h-i-v.net/living/testing-quiz


    If you're willing to let us know more about why you are concerned based on your transmission risk, we can provide you with some more articles, as well as information about testing. - Liz (Team Member)
