It may be a sign of HIV/AIDS or other infection.
 
Early stage symptoms signs of HIV Aids infection may include:

* fever
* sore throat
* tiredness
* joint pain
* muscle pain
* swollen glands (nodes)
* a blotchy rash on the chest.
 
Late stage symptom signs:
* persistent tiredness
* night sweats
* unexplained rapid weigh loss
* persistent diarrhea
* blurred vision
* white spots on your tongue, or mouth
* dry cough
* shortness of breath
* a fever of above 37C (100F) that lasts a number of weeks
* swollen glands that last for more than three months

 

Maybe you should be tested for HIV for sure.

 

Tests for both HIV-1 and HIV-2. The blood test (for sure) detects antibodies that are produced by the body's immune system in response to the HIV virus.
