Is coughing a primary symptoms of an HIV infection?

Primary HIV infection resembles the flu. Most patients at this early stage of infection will experience symptoms such as fever, body aches and even swollen glands. These symptoms typically resolve themselves and the patient will feel better within a week of two. The body is rapidly making new HIV cells during this time. However, it is unlikely that if they were to take an HIV test, the test would yield positive results. Why? Because the antibodies that we measure to indicate the prescence of HIV need time to develop. Typically, the body does not produce sufficient number of antibodies to measure until several weeks into the infection.
