only a doctor can diagnose whether or not you truly have swollen lymph nodes.  if we poke around for them...we can sometimes feel the nodes.  if we KEEP poking around for them...we can cause irritation and swelling.

hiv is transmitted through...
unprotected vaginal/anal intercourse
sharing iv drug works
mother to child

if you had any of those exposures...you will need to test 3 months post exposure for a conclusive test result.
