, white tounge, oral abscess, weight loss, headaches. Well the doc confirmed hiv ab negative and the Hiv rna pcr non-detectible.
Doctor went on to tell me that i do not have hiv and that i am ok. Then she went on to say that the cmv test came back high amounts in my blood. I asked if that could be causing my symptoms and she said mayb. Well now i am worried because i recently read that only about 2% of hiv is ever in the blood stream so a non detectible even without taking meds is not a sign of not being infected. Again this is my 12wk and on 2/10 i took a clearview finger prick test n was negative as well. But i just know that hiv is in my lymph nodes. They are tender and palpable in all areas of my body not just the neck, groin, pits. I can feel over them n feel a bunch of little pea sized pumps grouped together, So the way i was seeing it is if someone has HIV and during ARS exp thrush and oral abscess isnt that a sign of weaken immune system? If hiv was causing these symptoms would it have been a sign of high viral load in the blood and detected even now at 12wks? I know CMV is an OI of hiv and now i am concerned that i am a very fast progressor going stra8 to aids. I know this sound too extreme but CMV doesnt cause Lymphadenopathy so that wouldnt even start to explain my symptoms. Either way i am not sure if i should continue testing even past the 12wk mark. Can someone please answer my questions. Thank u!
I just dont know what else can explain the lymphadenopathy, i think u know my exp (broken condom 2x going from vaginal to anal) and all this started 1wk after exp. I have read that early signs of hiv are lymphadenopathy n that it stays active for months or years or even till treatment is started. do u really believe that if i was infected right now, the NAAT test at 5 n 7wks and now the HIV RNA PCR wouldnt have caught atleast something, the test i took recently went as low as 48 copies per ml. But i guess reading about hiv hiding in the nodes or other organs n not showing up in the blood stream kind of freaked me out. I am sorry for asking again.
