6 week?
Is 6 week pretty conclusive if one had 'supposed' ARS symptoms starting 2 weeks after expose? seroconversion would have taken place right?
So you are saying you took an ELISA test. The conclusive result for an ELISA is the same as Rapid testing for those that think they were exposed less than three months before testing. 3 months is conclusive not before.
Im not sure but it was in special clinic for HIV/AIDS they seem professional and they drew lots of blood.
YES! I know it is hard to believe your NEG result, especially when symptoms were present. Once ARS and seroconversion takes place, your body creates the antibodies necessary for the test to turn POS. So this means the viral illness you had, was not HIV.
thank you, cuz I did get some viral infection doctor said it happens, so if it was ARS i would have tested pos..
YES, if what you were feeling was really ARS, then seroconversion would have taken place and your test would have been positive.
