We did not take it any further because i did not know his HIV status. Two days later, because we were planning to take it further in the future, we decided to both get tested. I knew my HIV status but I wanted us to both go because sometimes people lie.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, he came back positive and i was negative. At first i was not worried but then I started reading about HIV on the net and there is a possibility of getting aids through deep kissing.<\/p>\n<p>This was a month ago and i think I am having a flu. I had fever one night and i have severe nasal congestion, cough and runny nose. My lymph nodes are not swollen.<\/p>\n<p>I am a teacher, and all of the teachers in my building have the cold, cough and flu. All five of us were sick together on Tuesday.<\/p>\n<p>I am worried that I have HIV? What is the best test to take after 40 days of exposure?<\/p>\n<p>Please help me.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-286","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-all-topics"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/286","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=286"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/286\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=286"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=286"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=286"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
