Understanding HIV and AIDS

Question 14 • MI-Contemporary Health

Which of the following can be a symptom of AIDS?

Answer
A
severe weight loss
B
elevated blood pressure
C
heart murmurs
D
all of the above

Explanation

Severe, unexplained weight loss can occur with AIDS, often because HIV-related illness affects appetite, nutrient absorption, or the body’s energy needs. Elevated blood pressure and heart murmurs are not typical symptoms of AIDS, so “all of the above” is not correct. The answer is severe weight loss.
