swollen lymph nodes a year later

[nervous2000]

Almost exactly a year ago, I had unprotected vaginal sex with a tourist I met who was visiting my city. It was a dumb, drunken mistake--but one that I have tried to put past me. Looking back on it, I have no reason to suspect he had HIV aside from the fact that he was a stranger who was willing to have unprotected sex with a girl he meets in a different country. Ejaculation did not take place inside me. I cannot say definitively that I experienced any specific ARS symptoms, but I do recall some swollen lymph nodes.

These past two weeks, I have felt swollen lymph nodes in my neck as well as under one armpit (The same areas that were affected a year ago after the exposure, which makes me more nervous). I know people say you cannot diagnose your own swollen lymph nodes, but if they are pretty obvious, I don't see how that could be disputed. I am starting to get very nervous that this could be related to my exposure a year ago. I'm not talking about ARS here...but the asymptomatic phase I am reading about. I am very, very scared and feeling anxious. Any peace of mind someone can give me would be so appreciated.

Thanks

No.

I am planning on getting tested this weekend. Do you think the lymph nodes would be suggestive of what one would feel during the asymptomatic phase?

Go test and obtain your conclusive test result.
