Yes, there can be misdiagnoses in almost any condition. A stomach ache can actually be the beginning of an ulcer. Back pain can actually be from gall bladder disease. Etc Etc. However, one of the first lessons in medical school and nursing school is, never assume a symptom is a catastrophic (terrible) condition when the symptom is just a symptom of a common problem. Most often, headache in an otherwise healthy person who has no other neurological signs or symptoms of abnormality likely means they either have tension headache syndrome or migraine headache syndrome. When a patient believes a common symptom means a terrible disease, the person may be a hypochondriac.

If you have a lot of discharge do you have HIV?
A lot of discharge is a common sign of STDs. There is no single sign that can tell you if you have HIV. The only way to know is to get an HIV test at your local health care provider. If you don't have a doctor, free and low cost testing is usually available. You can find local testing sites by going to http://www.hivtest.org/ The fact that you have a discharge is almost certainly not a symptom of HIV infection (it is more likely to be something like gonorrhoea) .. BUT the fact that you have the sort of infection that causes a penile discharge does significantly increase the risks that you will have acquired HIV from any HIV-positive sexual contact(s). The fact that you have a discharge says that you have something that needs checking out, so what better time to get yourself checked out for HIV too.
