HIV test
Okay, so I had a 4th gen HIV test performed post 7 weeks exposure and an HIV RNA early detection test performed at 8 weeks. Both negative. But I am diabetic so I know my immune system has a delayed response for infections and things. So I am wondering if these negative results can be considered conclusive. Also, I got both of these tests done from online std clinics, one was from stressfreestd.com and the other from stdtestexpress.com, both web sites sent me to quest diagnostics for testing, my question is are these web sites and this lab trust worthy?
Unprotected vaginal sex.
So can I consider these results from this lab conclusive or do I need to follow up with more testing?

Sorry to bother, but do you know how reliable quest diagnostics is? I know they have quite a bit of labs but are they reliable?
