yes those symptoms may not be coincidental. however you might need to wait a little longer to see if you are hiv positive. test results may be incorrect if you're tested too soon. they have a test where they prick your finger just like a diabetes test. it's completely painless and it takes 15 minutes. they test for hiv antibodies and that's why you might need to wait a little longer to test. if you have an outreach center near you they offer tests for free. also was the rash white? that's a common thing for hiv. flu symptoms are a common indicator. it's certainly possible. the best way is to see if that person you had an interaction with 100% is infected. bring him/her to a test center. even if it's negative he/she could still be a carrier. it's scary but you can definitely get it under control if you feel extremely off and in danger visit the er just in case it's something else.
