None of that matters. You have conclusive results that prove you didn't get HIV. Be safe and use condoms for vaginal or anal sex from here on out, and you'll never have any worries regarding HIV.
Time to move on.

no its not like that i cut my relation with her because i was so scared and after that night i asked her she said to me she is clean but never did a test so that is a kind of cheating !
I don't know her HIV status,why don't you ask her.It makes no difference if she has HIV,you can be friends and if you use protection you can have intercourse with her without any worries.It's silly to say you will cut your friendship with her on the basis of HIV status.People with HIV are just like all of us--Human Beings.
It has nothing to do with her. Your test results pertain to YOU. Start using condoms before you do contract HIV.
mr. Rain ond more last question does this mean the woman i slept with dont have the disease because we were friends and i cut my relation with her ?
no i was stressed from the first day i did that mistake. But now im ok and going tonight to sleep and forget about this it was a big nightmare someone could ever have . Any way thank you for your kind support and i hope everyone to be ok in the future . Bye
You're very stressed with a conclusive HIV result?That doesn't make sense.Anyway,it's time to move on now.
but mr.teak said after a negative result people who did high risk exposure should retest 3 months later and i did a high risk (unprotected). Please help me understand this im not familiar with this disease !
Your test is CONCLUSIVE.You don't require anymore testing.For the last time--YOU DON'T HAVE HIV.
so at 85 days with this tri-dot test means im ok right and i should retest after 3 months because im at high risk ?
Move along you were given your assessment and we are going to discuss some outdated information that you happened to find on the internet.

In an adult, a positive HIV antibody test result means that the person is infected, a person with a negative or inconclusive result may be in the “window for 4 to 6 weeks but occasionally up to 3 months after HIV exposure. Persons at high risk who initially test negative should be retested 3 months after exposure to confirm results

Well she is full of you know what.It's people like that who are responsible for all the HIV related fear and stress. 6 months is total bull.
really mr.rain and mr.teak ? Because i watched a video on youtube for a female doctor called HIV top ten testing questions and she said the window period is up to six months ?
A tri-dot test is approved and 85 days is past 12 weeks which is 100% conclusive.
really mr.rain but its only 85 days not 90 and what if this test is not accurate and FDA approved as mr.teak said ?
An 85 day negative Tri-dot is conclusive.You don't need to test on monday.You don't have HIV.
by the way i forgot to tell you that like some days earlier like 85 days after the incident i went to a lab in my city and did a test i dont what is it like a little square test called Tri-DoT or something and they taled me its negative . But i didnt belive it since i didnt reach the 90 days which is on monday which im gonna do the rapid accurate test .
ok mr.teak thank you alot i will go on monday and do it and i will tell what is the result ok wish me luck
