It happens because the body is reacting to HIV, and the immune system tries to fight it off. The symptoms at this stage can include: Fever Headache Upset stomach Sore throat Swollen glands Rash Aches and pains in muscles and joints Keep in mind that even if you have these symptoms, that doesn't automatically mean you are HIV-positive. Many different illnesses can cause these problems. Talk to a doctor or an HIV testing facility if you think you might be infected. At this early stage of HIV infection, it's important to know that you may not get accurate results from an HIV test. It can take 3-12 weeks for enough signs of the virus to show up on routine tests for the infection, which measure antibodies against HIV. A new kind of screening, called a nucleic acid test, can detect the virus itself during this early stage, but it's expensive and not usually used for routine HIV testing. Let the testing site or your doctor know if you think you might be recently infected. Also, be sure to use a condom every time you have sex, and take other steps to prevent spreading the virus.
