You've tested negative repeatedly after 6 months and a year, therefore you clearly don't have HIV. You should be seeking other reasons for your swollen lymph node. It could be anything, from something minor to something very serious. Go see a doctor to get a full evaluation. But you have 100% ruled out HIV with multiple negative tests so that's definitely not the problem.

1) very very unlikely. Test can detect almost all types
2) swollen lymph nodes does not mean hiv. As a dental student you should know how the immune system works. It may be other infections that is not hiv.
