A member asked:
For what reasons will a person suffer influenza-like symptoms after being infected with hiv?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Inflammatory rx: Only about 30% of people after acute infection will show any kind of symptoms such as high fever lymph node swelling night sweats or diarrhea. The flulike symptoms that are sometimes attributed to a acute HIV infection are due to the release of immune mediated proteins such as interferon, interleukins and tumor necrosis factors. Please bring about some of the above-mentioned symptoms.
