What Are The Symptoms Of HIV Infection?

I am not feeling 100 % like myself. So I have a tendency to search my symptoms. My symptoms seem to relate to HIV. I had a test done Oct 2016 & also blood work done which included HIV, STD s, plus full work up for anything else March 2017. What do I do?

General Surgeon,  's  Response
Hello,

The symptoms of HIV vary depending upon the viral load, individual host response and so many parameters.

Usually early symptoms are
- fever
- headache
- lack of energy

Later on symptoms are
- fever
- night sweats
- recurrent infections
- STD
- skin lesions as shingles or else
- swollen glands
- menstrual problems and yeast infections in women

Advanced stages symptoms are
- chronic cough
- weight loss
- diarrhea
- vomiting
- weight loss
- headache
- short breath
- altered memory
- coma
- death.

My recommendation for you is to remain calm and avoid stress as your reports are negative.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
