A member asked:
Is a recurring sore throat a sign of early hiv, coupled with intermediate night sweats and headaches? i tested negative using 4th generation elisa on day 57, is that conclusive to rule out hiv but then what could be causing the symptoms stated?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No, recurrent sore throat does not suggest HIV. And it is impossible to have HIV symptoms and also have a negative blood test. There must be a hundred conditions other than HIV that cause these symptoms. See a doctor if they continue and/or you remain concerned. But please no more questions about it on HealthTap; all the answers so far are petty much the same, right?
