Question

I'm looking at my Widal test report and I'm really unsure about what it means. It mentions things like Salmonella typhi O and H, and also Salmonella paratyphi AH and Bh, each with 120 dilutions. Can you help me figure out what these results indicate? I'm a bit anxious to understand if I need to be worried or if there's anything specific I should be doing.

Question

I'm really worried about a friend of mine who is HIV positive. She was on this medicine called Teevir from Mylan, but after a few months, she just stopped taking it. I'm wondering if there might be a better doctor or medicine available for her. Is there anything new or different she should try?

Question

Is exudative granulomatous lymphadenitis something I should be really worried about? I've heard it might be related to tubercular exudate. Is it treated the same way as tuberculosis? I'd really appreciate some advice!

Question

So about three weeks ago, I had a situation where the condom broke during intercourse, and it was only for like 13 seconds. The girl is confirmed HIV positive, and I've been really stressed since then. I did a PCR qualitative HIV test on the 13th day after it happened, and then a duo combo HIV test the next day, both came back negative. Then I took another duo HIV test on the 23rd day, and that was negative too. Do these results mean I'm in the clear, or should I still be worried until I hit the 28-day mark for the confirmatory duo test?
