I share your concerns. Although you didn't mention your age but I suspect prostate enlargement with such symptoms which is a common problem beyond 50 years of age (can happen earlier too). Prostate enlargement could be related to infections or an age related phenomenon.
You need to under go an ultrasound scan of pelvis to look for prostate size. If it enlarged you need to under go surgery (TURP). Chronic infection is also a possibility as you are HIV positive. In that case you need to take a course of antibiotics and surgery if doesn't give you relief.
I advise you to visit a urologist for examination, definitive diagnosis and treatment.
