It varies from person to person. For some people, the may experience flu-like symptoms within a few weeks of catching HIV. They may have a sore throat, a rash, aches, fatigue, swollen lymph nodes . This is called Acute Retroviral Syndrome. Other people don't have this. They may have HIV for many years before they develop symptoms and opportunistic infections. An opportunistic infection is a disease that normally wouldn't make you sick if your immune system was working correctly. Examples of opportunistic infections are thrush (yeast in the mouth), types of pneumonia and lung infections, meningitis, skin infections, tuberculosis, and certain cancers. HIV positive people may experience more herpes outbreaks if they have herpes already. They may have shingles, or get "colds" more often than normal. A person with HIV is considered to have full-blown AIDS when they have had certain opportunistic infections and have severely weakened immune systems If you are worried that you are infected though, don't wait until you have symptoms. Get tested!! The HIV drugs that are available can keep you healthy longer and help you avoid some of these infections.

Most people dont get symptoms, but if they do they usually come between 2-4weeks after exposure and last about a week.
