I've been having these weird episodes where I suddenly start shivering, and my body temperature drops. But then, not long after, the shivering stops, and my temperature goes up really high. It's confusing and a bit worrying. What could be causing this, and how concerned should I be?

I'm really worried and need some guidance. After being exposed, when do HIV symptoms typically start to appear? Or is it possible that there might not be any noticeable symptoms at all? Can you explain this to me?

HIV symptoms can appear anywhere from 2-4 weeks after exposure, with some people experiencing flu-like symptoms, such as fever, fatigue, and swollen lymph nodes, while others may not show any symptoms at all; this asymptomatic period can last for years, making it essential to get tested for HIV if you've been exposed or engaged in high-risk activities, as early detection and treatment can significantly improve health outcomes.

I'm a bit confused about my Widal test results. The numbers are 120, 140, 180, 160, and 1320O with an "H," "AH," and "BH" noted. The interpretation says "not conclusive," so I'm not sure if this means the test is positive or negative. Could you explain what I should understand from this?

The interpretation is not conclusive for a diagnosis of typhoid fever. Further investigations and clinical correlation are needed to confirm the diagnosis. For now, it is recommended to maintain proper hydration and nutrition, get adequate rest, monitor for symptoms such as high fever, abdominal pain, and diarrhea. Follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation and management.
