No it does not but you are free to get one for peace of mind.
Does my situation require testing?
>95% of infections are picked up at the 4-6 week mark with regular antibody tests. That's pretty high numbers.
When is it conclusive? How often do 4 week test turn positive after negative?
It's reassuring, but not conclusive.
How accurate is a hiv ab w/ reflux test 4 weeks out? Has anyone even heard of this test?
Your reoccurring joint pain is not a sign of HIV

Ok I'll go. Can someone confirm the migrating joint pain as an hiv synptom or not? I haven't gone to class in weeks. I just lost every hope and dream I had with my life can someone help?
I understand why you're worried. Really, I do. But you've been tested which proves it isn't HIV. I really want you to see a doctor, do that for me. I'd be thrilled. I'm not familiar with Hep, but I know it isn't HIV. Please, just go see the doc.
Please someone could this hiv or hepatitis? I have migrating joint pain all day. I thought that was an hiv symptom. It's worse when I sit. Doctors don't knownwhats going on. Has anyone else felt like this? Maybe on this forum?
I have seen a doctor and checked for autoimmune diseases and nothing was found
Could be anything. Who can tell?
As you were advised, go see a doctor. But what I can unequivocally tell you is, that it is not HIV. Certainly not from your posted exposure and also not from the symptoms.
Thank you all for your input,. You all seem experienced with this subject. Can someone please give me an idea of why my body is feeling like this. I saw other people in the forum with the same situation. Could it be hep?
Thanks for your advice, but if all of those symptoms came at once would that be hiv related? The migrating joint thing is bothering me because doctors don't know what it is.
Yes it could be anxiety but it could also be any number of things. I advise asking your doctor.
Is migrating joint pain be caused by anxiety or reactive arthritis?
The lose of appetite is all anxiety. HIV symptoms all come at once.
Thanks for the response. What can cause these symptoms after a sexual episode. Please help I'm paranoid no appetite list 20 pounds and may drop out of college today
I think you're just trying to point everything to HIV. You do not have HIV. Feel free to get tested if you like. But it is going to be negative.
