I will answer both your questions. 1.No,a negative after 3 months is accurate. 2.Not necessarily,she could be a LTNP but you haven't infected anyone if you tested negative at 3 months.All the best.

hi there,
just to clarify a bit.
i'll appreciate your response rainlover.  A lot has to do with anxiety. you see, I had a 'false positive' test six month ago.  I have tested every month since in different labs and all tests have come out negative (last test 6 months after risk).
however, i got really paranoied and have not been able to get over it.  Anyhow, in the last 3 months, i've been sexually active with my GF and she has been very sick with flu, shingles, and what haveyou. Something unusual for her...  My questions to you are :
1) Can i have false negative after 3 months window period even if chances are miniscule?
2) IF hypotethically, i infected my GF... whould she had a weaken inmune system within 4-6 month?
thanks Rainlover.  Im posting here because i know you don't reject any posters... I appologize for any inconvenience.
regards,
