A member asked:

Could i be hiv positive if i woke up with a high fever and aches in my muscles?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Hiv: HIV is a viral illness so yes is the answer. Do you think you have HIV because you have has risky behavior? Unprotected sex, drug injection, multiple partners who have HIV? It could be a simple virus as well, ask yourself the questions and get tested. It is just a blood test. See your physician. Hope this helps.
