thank you for query.if you have repeatedly tested and found negative for HIV then you need not bother about HIV .the symptoms are not due to HIV and may be viral or bacterial upper respiratory infection.take symptomatic treatment.There is no possibility of HIV as all the tests are negative. You can get back to me for any clarifications .Dr Bharatesh D Basti Dermatologist and Venereologist
