I had unprotected sex with an out call
girl (prostitute) about 7 1/2 weeks ago.
About 4 weeks later a got a rash on my
chest little pimple like rash.Then I got a
few on my arms then on my back and I still
have the rash. I just got tested and the
results wont be back for ten day. My
doctor said it looks like folicutis, which
from what ive read is an early symptom. I
also have neck,shoulder, and back pain
along with irritated throat. I have been
extremely stressed.I know you cant
diaginos by symptoms im just looking for
somene who can share some infromation with
me. Thank you very much.

Folliculitis is not a early symptom of hiv
any one can get folliculitis its really
sweat pimples/heat rash the hiv related
one happens later in the age stage when ur
tcells drop below 200 and ur body cant
fight bacterial infections

With HIV, one may develop a rash and one
may not. There are many reasons for a
rash. A harsh laundry soap, a summer
rash, acne, eczema, it could be anything.
If you are worried that it might be HIV,
please get tested. Greco you are ready
for a test but Bernabucci21, you would
have to wait three months from the point
of infection.
Bernabucci21, consider changing behaviour
so that you may not infect others if you
are infected. Gotta think of everything.
Protecting yourself keeps others safe and
prevents you from contacting HIV or other
STDs. All the best to both of you.
Always
Mson.
Bernabucci21, I had not realised that you
wrote in 2004.
