As the immune system deteriorates, a variety of complications occur. For many people, their first sign of infection is large lymph nodes or “swollen glands” that may be enlarged for more than three months. Other symptoms often experienced months to years before the onset of AIDS include:
lack of energy; weight loss; frequent fevers and sweats; persistent or frequent yeast infections (oral or vaginal); persistent skin rashes or flaky skin; pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) in women that does not respond to treatment; or short-term memory loss. Some people develop frequent and severe herpes infections that cause mouth, genital, or anal sores, or a painful nerve disease called shingles.
