Exposure and DNA by PCR Test.

Hey all. 3 months ago I had naked body contact/unprotected oral/kissing with some awful man who didn't tell me he was positive. He told me he didn't do anal sex and I should have known why, I found out afterwards. I got a DNA PCR test done at 1 week and 4 weeks, both came back undetected. Itw as through a private online lab, done at LabCorp.
How reliable are these results? I was so scared during this time you have no idea.
Am I in the clear?

You had no risk for HIV.

how reliable though is dna pcr at  4 weeks?

[anxiety55]

I dont know how reliable it is but it is good that it was negative. That sugests that you are not infected, but DNA PCR is not aproved test for HIV so it is not 100% conclusive. It is 3 months now whitch is good time for antibody test. So if you are concerned, get rid off your worries by geting ELISA antibody test. I am sure that it will be negative because you dont have any significant risk and that DNA PCR is alo good indicator. Go and get antibody test.

Does anyone else have an opinion? I have heard doctors consider PCR DNA to be conclusive in as little as 3 days and definitely by 28, is this true?

I am so worried I cannot move on should I go get a normal antibody test?

I suggest that you move on. I remember you quite clearly.
