My condition would worsen to include swollen lymph nodes behind my right ear, muscle ache in my lower back, sudden and drastic
weight loss, complete and prolonged loss of appetite (took weeks to recover), severe malaise, night sweats, exhaustion, an oral ulcer, rash on my left arm and swelling in the left side of my abdomen. Three weeks after the incident (now back in Canada), my GP sent me for an HIV test (4th gen duo), which returned non-reactive.
