Can ARS occurs after 9 weeks?
Hi, 9,5 weeks ago I have protected vaginal seks with a female. We have used a condom butt the condom failed. When we changes te positions I see that the condom is broken. It was for 1 or 2 minutes unprotected sex.
After 6 weeks i got a Alere Determine™ HIV-1/2 Ag/Ab Combo, it was negative. Now, I got a weird rash on my chest. 9,5 week after my contact. Hate myself , but can not help it . After 6 weeks I was negative , which convinced me .
Is it possible that the rash is from HIV after 9,5 week? Have no further complaints. ( not sick, no fever).The rash itch a little bit. It is the past few days have been particularly warm. Have a lot of sweat because I work in construction. Maybe it is the heat and sweating?
Picture of the rash is here: http://www.dokter.nl/media/kunena/attachments/0/image_2015-07-06-4.jpg

Todat i got a hiv test, its the INSTI HIV-1/HIV-2 Antibody. Quick test. Take 60 seconds, it was negative. After 10,5 weeks, can I close the chapter?
It's too late for ARS . My test was negative after 6 weeks. Butt the rash freaks me out. The doctor say, that my fingerprick test after 6 weeks was closing, I also got the same combo test after 3 en 4 weeks. Al 3 test are negative.
Is the rash of HIV always limited to this size I got? And proceeds without other symptoms such as fever , diarrhea , etc.?

Testing 1 more time will not hurt anything. As I said 6 week test will not change, probably 99% conclusive.
To be honest, I'm very afraid of HIV. The answer off 8 weeks makes me doubt. Guess I will test again to help myself of this fear. Especially the pimples on my chest making me anxious.The doctor at the hospital said that this test was conclusive after 6 weeks. He would declare me insane if I come again ?
Do I need to retest after my 6 weeks test with a Alere Determine™ HIV-1/2 Ag/Ab Combo fingerprick? Or is the result conclusive?
