Multiple HIV infections with the same partner may delay seroconversion

I had a hazard ratio with a prostitute for more than six months ago. After two days I kept unprotected sex with my partner, who had flu symptoms and rash after three weeks (I had no symptoms at the time, but appeared hypothyroidism). I tested negative (eliza) with 30, 60, 90 days I thought I was free of HIV. I kept in touch with my sexual partner without protection again after 90 days. Now I take another 180 days also negative. But I still feel that every time I keep relationship with my partner seems that arise symptoms of HIV. this is possible. I'm sure that the only hypothesis is that contact HIV six months, both for me and for her. These contacts may delay seroconversion after the first infection for more than six months.

You do not have HIV, stop worrying.  The fear that you have in warranted and unrealistic.  Move on.

sorry to post unconfirmed source in the forum, but I have no peace of mind for six months. need only one right answer and accurate in the sense that having unprotected sex about 4 times in 6 months only  with my sexual partner  can not delay the first time seroconversion (sex with a prostitute) . I fear that even comes  symptoms such as sore eyes, some strange acnes (very few) in the body and the appearance of new spots in the body. grateful.

No no no no no. Stop reading unattributed rubbish on the internet and have faith in the experts on medhelp, and posters in this forum.

As soon as transmission occurs the clock is ticking for seroconversion, to begin so any further exposures make no difference to that process.

so even in a hypothetical situation multiple infections (4 for example) over a period of six months would not delay seroconversion. I read on the internet but no source confirmed, which could delay seroconversion up to 18 months.

Not true at all,and your 3 month test would have been enough for a conclusive result.There is no such term as delayed seroconversion with todays modern,more sensitive tests avaliable.Neither of you have Hiv.You're both safe.
