Despite online advice and comments, symptoms ALMOST NEVER are useful in judging possible ARS. Your symptoms are not typical for ARS; maybe possible, but probably under one chance in a million you have it. And absence of symptoms also says nothing about likelihood of new HIV infection. Blood testing for HIV is the ONLY WAY TO KNOW. Don't worry about your symptoms, but have an HIV test if at risk.
