 [ Symptoms ] do i have hiv  12 days ago i had an interaction with someone who may have had aids day 9 i had mild diarrhea also mild headaches day 10 some sort of rash under my tongue now day 12 feeling ill with mild nausea and night sweats absolutely certain i am hiv positive [ Disease ] 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 are tested too soon they have a test where they prick your finger just like a diabetes test it is completely painless and it takes 15 minutes they test for hiv antibodies and that is 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 is a common thing for hiv flu symptoms are a common indicator it is certainly possible the best way is to see if that person you had an interaction with 100 is infected bring himher to a test center even if it is negative heshe could still be a carrier it is scary but you can definitely get it under control if you feel extremely off and in danger visit the er just in case it is something else
