Possible HIV symptoms just 5 days after?
Hi, I had unprotected sex on Sunday and have, as of yesterday, been experiencing swollen tonsils and a mild fever. Is it possible for the 'sero-conversion' phase to start this soon? And if I were to get an HIV test tomorrow, would this yield reliable results? Thanks.
