    12 Signs You May Have HIV

    Within a month or two of HIV entering the body, 40% to 90% of people experience flulike symptoms known as acute retroviral syndrome (ARS).

    But sometimes HIV symptoms don't appear for years-sometimes even a decade-after infection.

    "In the early stages of HIV infection, the most common symptoms are none," says Michael Horberg, MD, director of HIV/AIDS for Kaiser Permanente, in Oakland, Calif. One in five people in the United States with HIV doesn't know they have it, which is why it's so important to get tested, especially if you have unprotected sex with more than one partner or use intravenous drugs.

      Dry cough
      A dry cough was the first sign Ron had that something was wrong. He at first dismissed it as bad allergies. But it went on for a year and a half-and kept getting worse. Benadryl, antibiotics, and inhalers didn't fix the problem. Neither did allergists. This symptom-an "insidious cough that could be going on for weeks that doesn't seem to resolve," Dr. Malvestutto says-is typical in very ill HIV patients.
