Am I really HIV Positive?

Am I really HIV Positive?

Dear All,
This is my update of all tests done so far:
1. MEIA (15/4/2009): Reactive (s/co ratio 5.28)
2. Immunochromatography Assy (17/4/2009): Non Reactive
3. ELFA 17/4/2009): Non Reactive
4.Western Blot (8/5/2009): Positive
5. MEIA on my wife (with regular unprotected sexual contact with me) (25/5/2009): Non reactive
6. my CD4 count (25/5/2009): 663
7. my CD4 % (25/5/2009): 35% of Lymphocytes
8. Viral Load (HIV-1 RNA by RT-PCR) (27/5/2009): Undetected
The Doctor here (in Indonesia) feel I am HIV positive. Kindly suggest which more tests I should do to either confirm or otherwise that I am HIV positive. Please note that I HAVE NOT DONE ANY ACTIVITY IN LAST 8 TO 9 MONTHS WHICH CAN EXPOSE ME TO INFECTION. (Like unprotected sex, dugs, injection, blood transfusion etc.)
PLEASE...PLEASE...PLEASE HELP ME.

If you had HIV your RNA test would detect it. It would be positive.

MEIA with a 5.28 you wouldn't have an undetectable viral load.

Thats exactly what is bothering me. Out of five tests (MEIA, Immunochromatography, ELFA, WB and Viral Load), 3 are positive and 3 are negative....which one should I trust? What about contradictions...If I am positive then why two tests are Negative and If I am Negative then why two tests are positive...the anxiety is killing me..Please inform me how I can be sure of my status?

You were advised to take your tests results to an Infectious Disease Doctor and let them run the tests.
