You don't have HIV and don't need any further testing.

Let me see if I understand your situation. Your 68 yrs old and had a sexual encounter 2 yrs ago and are just now experiencing symptoms. Is this correct???? If so and you truely want to rule out hiv just go to the drug store and buy an over the counter hiv test named oraquick. It will give u results in 20 mins. Then you can go to the doctor because I think u have something else going on. This is what I would do if it were me.
