Hiv spleen enlargement
Hi I have enlarged spleen for many months. First time I check it was December and was 13cm and one week ago 14cm. I'm going to doctor tomorrow and I think I have hiv. Does anyone had same experience before or after diagnosed?
Hi
. It is understandable that an enlarged spleen would be concerning. I can't personally speak to this issue, but as discussed in this page from the Cleveland Clinic, there are quite a few potential causes for an enlarged spleen: https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/diseases/17829-enlarged-spleen. The doctor will probably be interested in why you think you may have HIV and if you have any of these symptoms associated with early stage HIV: https://h-i-v.net/symptoms/early-stage. Of course, the only way to be certain is through testing. This article describes the various types of tests: https://h-i-v.net/test-types. Your doctor should be able to provide further information. Wishing you the best tomorrow. Best, Richard (Team Member)
