How to get tested?

[Buck7]

Quick question. I'm at just over 6 weeks from an unprotected sexual encounter with a female. I've already gone over the paranoia questions about symptoms, so my question now is only this:

Can you get tested at a local medical center/clinic? Or do you have to go to a specialized clinic of some sort?

Is six weeks a good standard testing point? If the result comes back negative, would it be worth a later testing?

Thanks in advance.

6 weeks is pretty good, I would always say 12 weeks because that is the current medical recommendation based on WIKIPEDIA at greater than 99% accuracy, and everyone knows that if it is on WIKIPEDIA it is fact.
If you live in the United States, walk into a planned parenthood and for 25 $ you can take a oral swab test no blood involved.

Thanks reassurance. Since I've been racked with quite a bit of paranoia and guilt, I think I'd like to get in there sooner rather than later. Later again, if need be, but if 6 weeks is a decent indication I think I'll give it a go.

Thanks so much for the tips.

According to Dr. H who doesn't know **** but how to type, 6 weeks is like 95% good

Sorry, last question. It doesn't appear there is a planned parenthood very near where I live. Does anybody know anything about the "Home Access" test? Again, is this something that can be tested at a local hospital?

Your Department of Health should have HIV testing, it should be on your city web page, same thing rapid testing 20 minutes.
Otherwise other options do exist.
You can go to Walgreens and but a HIV home access kit and send it in and call them for your info in a couple of days or go to the hospital and ask to take an ELISA,
Cheapest would be to see if you can find out where you can do rapid testing in your community like the dept of health or some place that passes out condoms

You can post you lame answers somewhere else. WIKIPEDIA? What is hell was that answer. Any lame brain can post information on WIKIPEDIA. They are not a reliable source of information.

Dude you suck, and you're an angry man. I was joking with the WIKIPEDIA stuff, and I don't want your help, all you ever say anyways is "some people can have HIV without ARS symptoms"
and although it may be "lame" at least I put some compassion and humor into my answers. So kiss my butt

I'll tell you what, I'll take my answers from people that have knowledge of HIV/AIDS before I would listen to a WW that thinks they know it all and don't know a damn thing. Yes, I'm talking to you.
