Tests are not 100%?
« on: March 31, 2012, 09:42:37 am »
One woman, at home, I was with. Unprotected.
I later learned, women trying to massage parlor.

Then I tests;

38. HIV testing day duo ag / ab, 90 days (the State Hospital 3.gn) ELISA test, 105 days (the State Hospital 3.gn) ELISA test, all negative.

- I'm, HIV duo test, just to Vidas HIV Duo? Or Does Vidas HIV Duo Ultra?

A lot of my symptoms;
- Night sweats
- Fatigue
- Inflammation of the eyes
- Dizziness.
- Slice the white

My tests, completely 100% accurate?

A negative result at 3 months or more is conclusive so I don't see any need for further testing. The only reasons to test out to 6 months are situations involving  extensive intravenous drug use, an organ transplant or treatment for a disease such as cancer. As long as none of those exceptions apply to you then you have reliably tested negative.

Avoid this problem in the future by always using a condom for vaginal and anal intercourse. Those activities unprotected are the only confirmed risks for the sexual transmission of HIV. Use condoms and avoid transmission. It's just that simple.

Any approved HIV test from a reputable provider is acceptable for a conclusive result. But if I read you correctly as having testing negative at 105 days then you are already confirmed as HIV negative. And there is no need for any further testing.

Get on with your life.
