Need help about test

Hi,

Thanks who ever take time to go though my questions.
I had contact with two different sex workers.
First one is 6 weeks ago and second one is two And half ago.
I had protected sex + protected oral with both od them.
I then go test last week. Which was 4 weeks from the first contact and 10 days from the second. The test was called multiplex. The doc told me it is the latest one, which does a duo test first (accurate from 4 weeks) if this goes back negative then they will go for the real multiplex one which is 99.98% accurate from 10 days.
I have got both results negative, but the doc asks me to take followed up tests at 4 weeks. Do you guys think I can relax or need to pay attention to this entire issue.

Thanks again.

Your sex was protected both times so you never required testing in the first place and don,t require any futher testing.Your doctor should have explained this to you and also no test is conclusive until 3 months post-exposure.You can relax and forget about this whole situation.Your safe.
