Lymph nodes

[Moh1980]

Dear Dr.
I had a sexual episodes back in Jan. 2007 with a thai lady who is not a commercial sex worker. I had 3 times protected sexual contact, with open mouth kissing. 2 month later I developed a single enralge lymph node under my chin. the biopsy tst showed its a reactive lymoh node with follicular hyperplasia. then later the 2 nodes next to it start to swollen to a size of 1.5 cm. I did 5 hiv tests at 4, 5.5 7, 9th and 12.2 months after exposure. all came back negative. all tests are elisa, and my last one was HIV 1&2 ANTIBODIES, P 24 ANTIGEN COMBO TEST. Please doctor should i stop testing and move on cause i am engaged and almost get marry this month, pease doctor

For goodness sake, you don't have HIV!  Are you going ever going to accept this GOOD news!

As the doctor said, see a health care provider about the other problem.

Then Doc. there is no way that my body still did not recognize the viral particles and produce a detectable antibodies. Cause I am afraid that my nodes are large due to the multiblication of the virus within it

Stop testing. Your exposure was over a year ago and you have multiple negative tests up to a year after your exposure.  It is time to put this behind you.  I promise you, you do not have HIV.  If the swollen node continues to be a problem for you, you should work with your health care provider to get things sorted out.  This is not HIV.  EWH
