This article discusses common symptoms in the early sages of HIV. It states, there are none. It goes on to list many common ailments people frequently have that they may never even associate with being +.
- Fever
- Fatigue
- Aches& Pains
- Sore Throat
- Headaches
- Menstrual Irregularities
These were just some of the many common conditions that filled this list. Any of which you wouldn't think twice about having. You'd take a Advil & go on.
The point here is exactly that. The symptoms early on are easily misconstrued or even ignored. That's why 1 in 5 HIV + people in the United States are unaware they have the virus. This is why it's so important to get tested.
Sometimes, I find it hard to believe these conversations are still necessary. Where's everyone been for the last 30 years? Hopefully things will get better.
Cya...
