Question

I'm really concerned about my widal test results and I'm hoping you can help me understand them. The results show agglutination with "O" at a 1160 titer, but there's no agglutination with H, AH, or BH. Does this mean I have typhoid? What do these numbers indicate, and should I be worried about any specific symptoms or follow-up tests? I'm just a bit anxious and want to be sure about what's going on with my health.

Question

I'm wondering if, after being exposed to HIV, the antibodies still show up in the body even four years later. Is there any possibility that they might vanish over time? And if they might disappear, would they still be detectable after a long period?

Question

I've been dealing with swelling on the left side of my neck for about a month now. My doctor diagnosed it as lymph node tuberculosis and gave me some medication to treat it. I've been following the treatment plan for 25 days, but the swelling seems to have increased rather than decreased. Why would it get bigger while I'm on medication? Could it be spreading to other parts of my body?

Question

I'm really worried because I did an HIV test and it came back negative, but I smoked marijuana two days before the test. Now, I'm seeing some variations in my complete blood count test results, and it's making me doubt the accuracy of the HIV test. Could the marijuana have affected the outcome of the HIV test in any way? Can you please help me understand what's going on?
