Probably the 'best' answer in the world to your question I copied from 'doctor Bob', he is answering safesex questions at this site.
Regarding ARS, symptoms generally appear 1-3 weeks of contracting the virus. Sometimes symptoms may not appear until 4-6 weeks. It is called a syndrome (Acute Retroviral Syndrome), because it is a collection of symptoms that can be extremely variable form person to person. In fact, symptoms alone are notoriously unreliable in predicting HIV infection. It is estimated that 40-90% of acutely infected folks will have some ARS symptoms. But to specifically answer your question, the following is a list of symptoms associated with ARS and the percentage of time the symptoms are present:
Fever 96%
Adenopathy 74%
Pharyngitis 70%
Rash 70%
Myalgias 54%
Headache 32%
Diarrhea 32%
Nausea or vomiting 27%
Hepatosplenomegaly 14%
Thrush 12%
Neurologic symptoms 12%
The duration of symptoms is generally 1-3 weeks.

Stop relying on the so called ARS symptoms. Some people converted without experiment any ARS symptoms at all and some people experimented ALL ARS symptoms and tested negative. The mind is a powerful weapon against us and can play bad tricks when in fear. Get tested and stop worrying.
