Lymphoma or HIV?

Hi everyone. 

I am currently undergoing multiple tests to check if the lump on my neck is lymphoma. The specialist is also looking for autoimmune diseases and a few other things. Including HIV. I am experiencing panic and anxiety attacks I cannot wait 2 weeks for my results. Due to religious reasons, if I have HIV my life would be over. My x-ray and initial blood test came back clear. 

 

- I caught a nasty cough 6 months ago and I still have it. 

- 4 months ago a lump appeared on my neck and I still have it.

-I have been experiencing a pins-and-needled-like sensation in my tummy when I lie down for 4 months.

- Every day for the last 4 month's I have had a very mild fever too - it only lasts a few hours at a time during the day.

- I recently had a UTI.

- For the past 2 weeks I've been feeling sudden sharp pain in my vagina - not in my abdomen I mean inside my vaj. 

- I'm also feeling sudden sharp pains in my chest which only last about 5 seconds 

- My hair has suddenly started to fall out more in the last 1 month. 

Can this be anything other than HIV? I just need some hope to get me through the next 2 weeks. What other illnesses have similar symptoms to what I've described? 

 

  • I'm sorry your going through all this. Anxiety can bring on chest pains and hair loss...

    To rule out HIV  why not pop along to the sti clinic? Not sure how long the results take but worth a punt? 

    I hope you manage to get to th bottom of things, good luck love x
