I was bitten by someone which resulted in a tear in the skin on my knuckle. I only noticed my blood and no saliva or other blood around the wound. I washed the wound with soap and water and cleaned it with alcohol within minutes and applied some anti bacterial ointment on it. The wound was about 2mm x 1.5mm when I measured it. The person who bit me is HIV
+ and also is coinfected with Hepatitis C. Both are at undetectable levels (if that really means anything?). The incident happened 2 weeks ago and I have not been able to sleep well and am having great trouble concentrating. What is the possibility of actually contracting these diseases in this manner and how soon should I get tested for the results to mean anything. The day after exposure I went and was tested for HIV
by HIV1-Abs and the results were negative (I didn't get tested for Hep C only because I didn't know about that until 2 days ago). How effective are the PCR tests for HIV
