Probably not: HIV infection is generally asymptomatic, although an acute infection can present as an acute flu condition. Also, symptoms are not localized with HIV, the affect the body as a whole. If you are straight, have not have unprotected gay sex, or share needles for illicit drug use, your chances of having HIV are remote.

Not likely : These symptoms are unlikely to be caused by (unusual for) HIV. Unfortunately, your symptoms are non-specific and I can not tell you what is causing them without comprehensive history and physical examination.
