Swollen Lymph Nodes, No Fever
I've had some exposure last December 2010 and February/March 2011. On April I developed skin rashes on my groin. It went away after I consulted with the dermatologist she said its eczema so I moved on. But after 1 week, all my lymph nodes area became tender and painful. In the first 2 weeks there was no swelling, after that my armpit glands swelled followed by both sides of my neck. They are not visible. They are big as M&M peanuts. They are painful/tender. My CBC is normal. Mono is negative. I will get tested for HIV but any idea first? I had no fever or sore throat. How much percentage do people experience ARS once exposed?
Test at 3 months. No your symptoms do not sound like ARS, but you can never use symptoms to diagnosis.
Unprotected. But it was quick. Does my symptoms possible signs of HIV? My lymph nodes has been swelling for nearly a month now. Never had fever/sore throat. Ive had some rashes on my groin but looks like eczema/jock itch looking.
