The primary hiv symptoms like sore throat, fever, headache & rash, comes together? or their is a possibility to experience some of them and some not?

Complex: Acute HIV disease may present with a mononucleosis-like syndrome with a wide variety of symptoms, or none at all. If you suspect you may have been exposed to HIV please go and get tested. Treated early this is a manageable condition.
