Answer:
Hi,
It is not possible to reliably diagnose HIV infection or AIDS based on symptoms alone.
People living with HIV may feel and look absolutely well but their immune systems may nevertheless be damaged. It is important to remember that once someone is infected they can pass on HIV right away, even if they feel healthy.
It takes up to 6 months for someone infected with HIV to bring up a positive result on an HIV test. Basically, you just can't tell who has HIV or not, which is why you should always use a condom.
I hope this helps.
Answer:
Some people develop flu-like symptoms immediately after infection. High fever, body aches etc. If you do develop these symptoms after a potential exposure to HIV you should seek medical care IMMEDIATELY. There is evidence that treatment early after infection with anti-viral drugs can substantially decrease your risk of progressing to AIDS.
However, the majority of people experience no symptoms immediately after infection, and might not experience symptoms for years. So, its really more common to have no symptoms at all in the first few weeks.
I hope that this is a general interest question, and not because you’ve a reason to fear an exposure. If you’re worried, you should seek care.
Answer:
Most people don't have any symptoms for a long time after they get infected. Some people have flu-like symptoms within the first few months after infection, but this does not happen often.
Lack of symptoms is one reason why testing is so important. It can take up to 3 months for someone to test positive. In rare cases, it can take up to 6 months for someone to test positive.
Answer:
Its more common for them to not show symptoms. That's why a lot of people believe they don't have it before they even get tested. It can take up 6 months to 10 years for someone to show any symptoms. That’s why it is extremely important to get tested. You can not see HIV/AIDS in a person. The drugs they have today makes it impossible to tell if someone is sick. Sex isn’t worth your life. Wrap It Up!
