Could you please check the results?

Hi,
I took a HIV test at a testing center last week and they gave me this report. Could you please check it and let me know if all the required tests have been performed? Is it required to get HIV DNA/RNA also?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Test Name:

HIV AB, HIV 1/HIV 2, EIA
W/REFL TO HIV 1 WB
HIV 1/2 EIA AB SCREEN

---------------------------------------------
Results:

IN Range: NON-REACTIVE
Out Range:NON-REACTIVE

A Nonreactive HIV-1/2 antibody result does not
exclude HIV infection since the time frame for
seroconversion is variable. If acute HIV infection is
suspected, antibody retesting and nucleic acid
amplification (HIV DNA/RNA) testing is recommended.

Oral sex is not a risk.

Thanks Vance2335,
I had an exposure 3 months and 1 week prior to this test. This test was for that exposure which I feel was slightly dangerous.
Thanks.

PS: I had another exposure 3 weeks back(I will be taking another test after 3 months for this). I feel hopeless about myself for allowing these two encounters and never will sleep with any hooker ever again. This exposure was safe in terms of intercourse but not in terms of oral sex. So will have to take another one later. I just wanted to confirm that the previous encounter did not affect anything.
