I'm really worried because I had 23 lymph nodes on my neck after finishing my TB treatment. After seeing a doctor, I was given Moxif 400 and Pantocide 40, which helped, and the nodes burst out. I was fine for a while, but now after 7 months, a single node is back with pus-like symptoms. I'm really anxious about what's the best treatment for this and how long it will take to heal. Is there a chance it could come back again after 6 or 7 months even after getting treated? Please, I need some guidance on what to do.

Hey, I'm a bit worried and need some advice. I took an HIV 1 and 2 ECLIA antibody test on the 63rd day after potential exposure, and it was done using the Roche e411 analyzer. I'm curious about how accurate the results might be at this stage. Should I trust the results, or do I need to retest later?
