recent exposure and past assessment
hello friend, i am a 40 year old male who has had protected sex with sex workers on and off for over a year. i have read your past posts but was hoping you could assess my individual situation. i am concerned about hiv exposure.i shaved in my genital area and was concerned if there were razor cuts in my pubic region or area where condom may not have covered. i took qualitative rna test 28 days post exposure which came back non reactive and rna hiv-1 not detected. i know i have to wait 90 days for conclusive but the wait is stressing me awful. also it does not test for hiv-2. i would also like to know if the rna test would be effective for exposures 5 months to a year as well. your insight and risk assessment is greatly valued. thank you.
my apologies to you and the postee, how do i post my own question directly to you in the future. i am new to this. thx again.
