Welcome to our Forum.  It is time for you to believe your test results.  The symptoms you list, swollen glands, swollen tonsils, patches in your mouth are non-specific. Fortunately, the tests for HIV are amongst the most reliable tests in modern medicine..

1) how likely to change my hiv results at 6 months or later ?
Both your 3 and 4 month results are definitive and will not change.  Further testing is a waste of time.

2)its 6 months now from the risk what test can i have now ?
You do not need any more testing- you need to believe the results you have.

3) the test i done 4th gen test how good is that at times i had ??
The 4th generation tests are superb and test for HIV in two ways, looking for the HIV p24 antigen an looking for antibody to the virus. For a 4th generation test to be negative both of these tests must be negative.

Bottom line- you did not get HIV from your broken condom episode.  It is now time to put the past behind you and move forward. EWH

No, your swollen glands are due to something other than an STD.   EWH
