9 WEEK is very encouraging :)

Can my negative easily turn positive at 12 weeks? I am a little worried.

I have had a negative 9 weeks post my last dose of PEP. Like I said, I am 3 more weeks for a conclusive test. So far, I have been testing using the
rapid
Rapid shallow breathing
test where they prick a
finger
Amputated finger
Amyloidosis on the fingers
Clubbed fingers
Cryoglobulinemia - of the fingers
Herpes zoster (shingles) on the hand and fingers
Janeway lesion on the finger
Kawasaki's disease, peeling of the fingertips
Nail abnormalities
Replantation of digits
Ringworm, tinea manuum on the finger
Skin cancer, melanoma on the fingernail
. Is this test reliable? Sometime I think I wont make it; I am very stressed up.

Do u think I have a chance of getting a negative a 12 weeks? How often does a 9 week negative post PEP turn positive at 12 weeks in this forum?
