Like many people, you probably will not have any early HIV symptoms if you are infected with the virus. You may, however, have a flu-like illness within a month or two after exposure. This illness can include:
Fever
Headache
Tiredness
Enlarged lymph nodes (glands of the immune system easily felt in the neck and groin).
These early HIV symptoms usually disappear within a week to a month, and are often mistaken for those of another viral infection. During this period, people are highly infectious, and HIV is present in large quantities in genital fluids.
