HIV Test Question
Thank you all for taking time to read this. I was raped a while back and it's completely thrown my life off track, especially with the fear of having HIV. The man who did it tells me he wore a condom, but I suppose I have every reason not to believe him. He took an Oraquick In-Home Oral Swab test 5 and a half weeks after the assault and it came back negative. I have had three 4th Generation Combo/Duo tests taken. All have been negative.
28 days after the assault
48 days
and 60 days.
I've also taken 2 Oraquick In-Home Oral Swab tests. Both of these were negative.
84 days
90 days
What is the likelihood of seeing these change? My anxiety is just through the roof and I would like some input. Thank you guys once again.

Vance, thank you for the reply. Huge supporter of everything you do for this site. I remain in contact with him out of fear. Like maybe he did have HIV and didn't tell me. I figured if I was nice to him, he would tell me if he was hiding anything. But obviously all that matters is that I'm negative at this point. No more contact from here on out.
The DUO test reacts to the antigen and antibodies. It has proven to be conclusive at about a month after exposure.(4 weeks...28 days)
In your case that proves correct since you took two Oraquick at 84 and 90 days post exposure.
The Oraquick only looks for antibodies to the virus, and at 84 days the Oraquick would have been positive if you had been infected.

Thank you for your reassuring words man. I gotta ask though, what do you think the window period for the 4th generation test is? I see a thousand different things about it and I'm just curious.
U got to belive mate ! It has happen to me before ruined my life for a year ! Dont let it do to you the same ! Ur results wont change even if u test 100 more times

Thanks Justin. As you could probably guess, it's just fear that keeps me from believing the tests.

May I ask why are you still in contact with the person who raped you?
