Swollen lymph nodes, possibility of HIV

2018-01-20 13:38:42
I have swollen lymph nodes around my neck for about 4 months when I started noticing them. I already had my neck ultrasound as per advised by my doctor and I will be giving the results next week. I was afraid it may be a symptom of HIV because when I was doing some research I saw it as possible infections. I saw its early symptoms like lymph nodes around the neck. They say symptoms don't appear at the early stage of HIV. Please reply soon. Thank you.

Don't think of HIV straight. It may be something else like TB. Ultrasound report is ready on same day but more important is to get FNAC of lymph node
