A member asked:
Exposure africa.2 yrs ago. hiv 1&2 duo x11. been donating blood 3 times. all neg. continued oral thrush/throat sym, neuropathy legs.rare strain? help.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Urban myth: There are no "rare strains" of HIV not diagnosed by the duo test. And oral thrush plus neuropathy-like symptoms would never be the only manifestations of an HIV infection. Infected people typically have either no symptoms or lots of them, not just one or two that show up on lists of HIV/AIDS symptoms. Stop obsesssing on HIV and work with your doctor about other explanations. Good luck.
