I dont think so..i am not an expert...but as for me if i test negative at 6 weeks i will be happy and 3 months..i will stop worrying and live life to the max...
is it impossible to get a negative at 5 months and 8 months if i am really positive?
Negative Man.....3 months are enough..6 months more than enough..go and enjoy life wiz ur kid....
even with this unexplained reactive lymph node?
what are the chances my tests were wrong?
please....i am freaking out...i have a two year old and have not been able to be attentive to her because of my worrying.

No possible exposure since 0ct 2006. Last oraquick July 2007. That's *counting on fingers*...nine months. More than enough time! You're negative.
