Yes: Early HIV can definitely show the above symptoms by 6 months. It depends on the viral load. If you are experiencing these symptoms, you should see a Dr and get tested. HIV meds these days are very good at reducing the viral load and getting rid of symptoms as well as preventing further symptoms and problems. If negative, your Dr can pursue other diagnoses and treatments.
