More info ...: It would be helpful to understand when you developed the fever and armpit lump(? lymph node or a skin/soft tissue infection), did you also understand viral load testing? Even with the improved early detection/ utility in acute HIV with the p24 antigen, viral load testing is more sensitive. This situation may be best addressed with a formal HealthTap prime consultation to review all information.
