what do you mean by would not be generalized? You are clearly misleading people here.

HIVers will have generalized lymph nodes. That is, in everywhere

Usually at five weeks you would be out of the scope of ARS. If you were to have lymph node swelling, it would not be generalized. You would have swollen lymph nodes, in your neck, under your arms, bottom of your jaw and else where usually someone that thinks they have swollen lymph node is because the play with them and irritate them causing them to swell and be painful. Most people wouldn't know a swollen node if they looked for one. You need to see a doctor if you think you have swollen nodes and keep your fingers off them. Swollen lymph nodes with HIV do not hurt.
