A member asked:
Do htlv & hiv have similar symptoms? hiv neg 13 mos after possible exposure, but still having "classic" symptoms, wondering what else it could be.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
What symptoms ?: Htlv and HIV are virus- they can give the same vague type of symptoms like other virus infection. Htlv infection is not common- unless if you do live in the endemic area- like in japan -for instance-then perhaps your risk is more relevant. My suggestion, if to f/u with your md and repeat the HIV test again. And please do practice safe sex
