Almost nine years ago I was going through things and I had a few encounters with a few different people unprotected. I went to the clinic at my college not long after my last encounter but it was probably too soon to determine if I had contracted HIV or not. I have not been tested since and I am going for my yearly in Feb and am going to ask my doctor to test me then, but I was just wondering if I had contracted HIV would I have had any signs by now anything at all? Thank you.

Typically the symptoms of AIDS reveal themselves sometime around 5-10 years, it can be later but it's highly unusual. You should be showing symptoms by now if you were positive, so I really wouldn't worry. If you really are worried (and you shouldn't be), just get a test, it's the only way to know for sure.
