Symptoms can include:
Fever (this is the most common symptom)
Swollen glands
Sore throat
Rash
Fatigue
Muscle and joint aches and pains
Headache
These symptoms can last anywhere from a few days to several weeks. However, you should not assume you have HIV if you have any of these symptoms. Each of these symptoms can be caused by other illnesses. Conversely, not everyone who is infected with HIV develops ARS. Many people who are infected with HIV do not have any symptoms at all for 10 years or more.
You cannot rely on symptoms to know whether you have HIV. The only way to know for sure if you are infected with HIV is to get tested
if you think that you get HIV through shared needles being infected ,then:
The time it takes for a person who has been infected with HIV to show a positive test result (also known as seroconverting) is commonly called the "window period". There are different types of HIV Tests, and each type has a different window period. We have a more in depth article about HIV test window periods.
A test taken at least 12 weeks (3 months) after exposure to the virus provides highly accurate results.If you test negative on an antibody test taken 3 months or longer after your last possible risk of possible exposure to HIV, you can feel safe in assuming that you do not have the virus
