I had unprotected oral sex 135 days ago and 35 days ago. I tested negative for HIV at 125, 129, 135, and 35 days post-exposure. However, I developed a bad cough, sore throat, cold sore, mild thrush in the mouth, blemishes on my face, and a white film on my tongue with small white lines on my inner cheeks. I'm incredibly nervous and experiencing high stress and anxiety. Could this be HIV, and what should I do?

The skin on my scrotum is very red, painful, and tender, making it difficult to walk due to rubbing against underwear. I have been dealing with this for the last two days and have noticed no other changes to my skin or nails. I am 56 years old and recently used a soap that I don't normally use, wondering if I am reacting to that. What could be causing this and what should I do?

My wife wants to get pregnant. I had a high-risk exposure with an HIV-positive person. My 10-week HIV test was negative, and I am going to get the 3-month test done. If that is also negative, can we go ahead with the pregnancy without any fear that my wife may get infected from me?

I was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin's lymphoma 18 months ago. Recently, lumps appeared under my arms and neck, grew quickly, and then reduced in size. I've had scans, a fine needle biopsy, a PET scan, and a lymph node removed for biopsy. Could this be a mistaken diagnosis?

When I try to contract my right bicep, it does not flex as easily as my left bicep, even though I am right-handed. I am a 13-year-old male, do not have pain, and this has been happening for about a year. I do moderate workouts and have no neck trouble. What should I do?
