People Have Told Me Pcr Can Test False Positive
Posted: 12-02-05 15:28pm

Hello,
i tested positive but I have been told pcr can return a false positive, and I need to wait another 3-4 weeks and take an antibody test.
I am very nervous and on edge. Has anyone every experienced hiv.
I have had pain in lymph nodes for 2.5 weeks now, temps every day up to 100.5, headaches, sore throat etc. I have had flus before but never like this or for this long.
Last couple of days while I still have the body aches and temp most of the pain seems to be in the shaft of the penis, kidney area, groin and legs (shooting pain in my calves and thighs). Is this normal for indicating an hiv infection?
Please help with info if you can.

While some of what you mentioned are sometimes considered symptoms, hiv sets no clear symptoms in anbody as it reacts differently in everyone.
