Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. He may have some viral infection or some other cause. He should go for bone marrow examination once. It will give clue to the diagnosis. Then start treatment accordingly. It is not necessary that first test of hiv is negative then second is also negative.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
