Accepted Answer

You don&#x27;t have HIV: The HIV lab tests always overrule symptoms. If done long enough after last possible exposure (4-12 weeks), the tests are nearly perfect, whereas all symptoms of HIV are nonspecific, i.e. can be cased by innumerable other medical or psychological conditions. You can be 100% certain you don&#x27;t have HIV. See a doctor to work out the actual cause of your symptoms. Good luck

Question 2

can u have a virus (covid, flu) and only have muscle aches and fatigue? had both shots n booster. and flu shot. but over last 24 hrs. had bad muscle aches and pains and some fatigue. no cough or cold symptoms?

Accepted Answer

: Many viral infections can produce the symptoms you described. It is good that you are vaccinated. However, almost no vaccine is 100% and subclinical infection with one of the viruses you are vaccinated against could produce the symptoms. Stay hydrated, take acetaminophen for aches, no more than 4 g in one day and no alcohol.

Question 3

i have hsv-2 for many years and have an outbreak now on my anus. i have been having some nerve/muscle pain in my legs since about a day before the outbreak. can the herpes virus cause these kinds of symptoms?
