Full Blood Count

[clansman]

I've posted recently regarding a potential unprotected vaginal incident with CSW I had asking for my risk. Had negative 6 week test however some varied symptoms at 5 weeks and 6 weeks which I was concerned may be ARS.

I've come to the conclusion now that a condom was in place at the end of the vaginal however I seem to recall a pink tinge to it and wondered whether this may have been menstrual blood. If so would this increase the risk even with a condom?

Also, had a Full Blood Count done this week and it came back with no issues. I know that you can't diagnose HIV with this test however if I had recently seroconverted could I have expected this to be showing some variance?

Thanks for any comments.

is a full blood count an hiv test?

Not just because you didn't have a risk. Because the test that needs to be ran are not involved with a CBC panel.

Thanks Teak. When you say my full blood count would show no variance is this based on your assessment that I had no risk? Presumably someone who was seroconverting or had seroconverted would have a different count?

You did not have a risk and the CBC would not have shown a variance.
