bless,

When there has been an actual risk for hiv infection, only a three month negative result is conclusive.

It would be easier to discuss what's worrying you if you'd just come out with it and tell us. It's too time-consuming to play twenty questions.

The window period is three months. Please don't send another email to me regarding this matter.

bless,

I've merged your new threads into your original thread - where you should post all your additional thoughts or questions. It helps us to help you when you keep all your additional thoughts or questions in one thread.

If you need help finding your thread when you come here, click on the "Show own posts" link under your name in the left-hand column of any forum page.

Please also read through the Welcome Thread so you can familiarize yourself with our Forum Posting Guidelines. Thank you for your cooperation.

You don't get to pick and choose who answers your questions on this site, and neither do you get to PM members from the Living section to pester them with questions. I've removed your PM privileged because you have already heavily abused it within minutes of being granted that privilege.

You have tested far outside the window period. You ARE hiv negative.

Bless,

I'm extra sure, honey, yes.

I'm also sure you won't be bothering anyone with PMs again - you're banned.

You are also conclusively hiv negative. Seek counseling if that's what you need to learn how to come to terms with your situation. We cannot help you with that here.
