Hi, I am from sweden.I went to see a dentist for hygein treatment.After one wek, I got sore throat, stiff neck muscles, and sever pain in back side of my head.It was so severe that,I was not able to walk.There was also pain under the chin, in groin area,back side of knees,arms amd armpits.I also got light fever.Now it has been 2 weeks, I still ahve pain and weakness but now it is not much severe as it was in the begining.I went to see a doctor and he told me that it is common viral infection in sweden and it will take few days to heal.However, I am afraid of possible HIV infection from the dentist.What should I do? Is it possible to have severe pain in head (mostly in back side of head, some time to the right or left, it is not like headche, it is like magrin pain....backside, right or lift side, and pain with pulse)...................Am I HIV ive? I never had sex.....................

I rather doubt you got HIV this way.The only way to know if you have HIV is to be tested for HIV.Go to the clinic and have a HIV test.That is the only way to know but I don't think you have it. Your symptoms do not sound HIV related.
