Hello,

Based on your history having 5 of 4th generation test negative for HIV, I think you shouldn't worry because these symptoms are not related to HIV. Usually the protocols recommend having an 4th generation test after 3 months from the last exposure to be more accurate.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
