anyone who's had unprotected sex is hypothetically at risk for contracting a number of sexually transmitted diseases (stds) among them hiv. the only way you can know for sure is to get an hiv test which i would highly recommend because everyone should know their hiv status. i would not jump to the conclusion your current partner had acute retroviral syndrome. it's flu season. if he didn't get vaccinated against influenza then he probably just had the flu. the severity of flu symptoms can vary greatly from one person to the next. and while yes influenza is quite contagious that doesn't necessarily mean anyone else around him would contract it. in fact anyone around your partner who's had a flu shot would be protected from getting the flu from him. but my larger message here is that both you and your partner need to get tested for hiv. not because you're especially likely to have it but because as i said anyone who is having unprotected sex (even once) with multiple partners has a responsibility to know their hiv status. and please practice safe sex. hiv is just one of many stds you could contract and pass to others by not using a condom. thank you! i have all the symptoms that you describe. i took the test after 1 year and 3 months. it came negative. but i have all the symptoms now. now my girlfriend also having the symptoms. i think its some viral infection. if you have some problem wait for 3 months and have the test
do i have hiv and could i have given it to my boyfriend? . i had unprotected a few times. i never got tested or had symptoms. i've been dating a guy for 2 months and he's suddenly had a really bad flu. i know that once you've contracted the virus it takes 2-12 weeks to get acute retrovirus syndrome which include fever fatigue and often rash headache joint pains swollen lymph nodes and sore throat. he had all except the rash & swollen lymph nodes. if he really did have the flu wouldn't it be contagious? no one else caught the flu from him.
