stress can cause those symptoms and do use both a favor sat FOFF the net looking for crap about HIV it will drive you crazy if you wanna look for information go to CDC.GOV or you local health dept website tghere aot if junk out there to confuse people. A basic rule a SIX week NEG antibody test is 99 % Accurate based on the cdc but likei said stress and anxiety can cause all kinds of symptoms. Your neg. Wishing you the best
