The HIV window period is the same for a diabetic as it is for a regular person,& whats with all the testing.You should have an elisa test at 3 months.

[Teak]

You can obtain your conclusive test result 3 months post exposure.

[RainLover71]

No it does not mean that at all.So far your results are excellent,just test again at 90 days

[Teak]

When antibodies are detected on an ELISA your level will be above 1.0.

[sai59]

thanq, shall i go for  Rapid or tridot antibodies test , is that fine or shall i go for only elisa test? plz advice? and also after 3 months which test is better , kindly advice me , so that i will take only that test that time and  i will give my results after 3 months , still 3 weeks left for me for the three months, realy thanks a lot for ur answers.

[Vance2335]

Any antibody test at 3 months is fine.

Hi, i am taking Complete Blood picture (CBC) test from the last 2 months as well, but Hemoglobin &  Red blood cells & Platlets count is increasing every time , but the Lympocytes are decreasing every time from the Last 2 months,

last test Hemoglobin : 16.6 -Reference range (13-17) , RBC -5.82 Reference range (4.5-5.5) , Platelet count 3.20  Ref range (1.50--4.10 Lakhs/Cumm).  And Lymphocytes 16  Refe range ( 20-40) , i realy dont know whether these are decreasing bcz of  high tension every day, or some thing is happening , can we rely on CBC ?  could you kindly let me know?

[joggen]

A CBC doesn't diagnose HIV and nobody is going to comment on it since none of us are doctors.

[nursegirl6572]

ONLY an HIV test can diagnose HIV.

If you're concerned about your bloodwork (which is totally normal, btw), ask your doctor.  It's no kind of indicationo of HIV.

[sai59]

Dear Teak, on 74th day i had taken HIV Tridot test = Negative , and today 75th day taken  HCV Tridot test for hepitics C = Negative, i will take tests again on 90th day , shall i take these tests for conclusive results , 1.HIV ELISA Antibodies test, 2. PCR Proviral DNA (Qualitative) , 3. P24 Antigen test.  till now i didn't face any symptoms , like fever , cold r cough  any , only got head ache 2 times in all these days, BCZ i am diabetic patient i just to take ur decision , is 13 weeks conclusive or shall i take for  17 Weeks? i will also take Complete blood picture on that day again.

[nursegirl6572]

You've already received that answer.  A standard antibody test is all you need (ELISA) at the 3 month mark.  

You already know when conclusive is...3 months (12/13 weeks) you're just repeating the same questions, we've already told you your diabetes will NOT affect an HIV test or the production of antibodies.

If you're having a CBC based on your HIV risdk, don't.  It's completely unnecessary, and as you've already been told (again), will NOT tell you anything about your HIV status,.

Please stop asking us to reapeat the same info.  There are other people asking questions.  Yours have already been answered, multiple times.  No need to post until you update the thread with your 3 month test results (which will most likely neg).

[sai59]

Hi,

Read what you have already been told again and again and again.

[tensed19]

Dear Sai , ab koi testing mat karao ... 3 months is conclusive, play safe in future. Normaly 60 din mein pata chal jata hain lekin safety keliye 90 din ka safe guidelines diya gaya hain. take care
