HIV TESTING

Ok guys heres the deal i went for a hiv screening at 7.8 weeks and came back negative this was a simple elisa test and the doctor told me that i needed to come again at the 3 month post exposure mark and i did infract i went today which is 88 days from my last exposure and 98 from my first unprotected oral exposure. I will be receiving them tomorrow. This time i did a 4 gen duo p24 test which says its with the method of CMIA. But a doctor at the center told me that after this i should come agoin in 3 months but my doctor said that this was gonna be my final.... I also read info that this last test is accurate only at early stages and i should have done it at 6 weeks.... now what to believe????

So i am asking you if this test turns back negative can i just forget everything those people have said about testing..... and be sure i dont have HIV!!! thank you

even though you never had a risk...a test at 88 days is RELIABLE AND CONCLUSIVE.

Thanx guys but these docs have me convinced that i had some sort of risk they said to me that there is possibility.... nevertheless in the circomstance that i had a significan risk would a 88  day test exclude hiv infection once and for all up untill that point???

You didn't have a low risk, you didn't have a risk at all.
