P24 Antigen and HIV Antibody test at 4 Weeks

P24 Antigen and HIV Antibody test at 4 Weeks

I've just been given my test results, the test was done at the 4 week mark, and the results were,

P24 Antigen - Non-detected
Hiv Antibody - Non-detected

I've had symptoms of ARS which began 7 days after exposure, i believe now that having the test at 4 weeks and it being negative, i should move on and forget about it.  Please can some of you more knownledgeable posters on here offer there opinion. Much appreciated

regards

7 days is a very short time after exposure.  

Dont know your exposure risk or symptoms, but like the doc said, he has never seen someone tested negative in the 4-6 week window, go on to test positive at 12 weeks in his entire career.  So your probably pretty safe.

A 4 week negative duo test is pretty encouraging. Get tested again at the 8-12 week period. Meanwhile, accept your negative results and move on with your life.

I had been practicing risk behavior of having unprotected sex with my girlfriend in two different times  on 10/5/2011and on 25/5/2011. I decided to go for HIV TEST on 17/6/2011 and result was negative. Then after two days one of my friend told me that my girlfriend is said to be HIV infected, I am not scientifically sure but I discovered some rushes in her body. I was threatened and decided to go to another medical laboratory for HIV test on 26/6/2011(after 25 days), and the result was written " non reactive", laboratory technician told me nothing was detected " I am safe" if any changes appeared he could have told me even if it is weak positive. May the result change if I keep away(stopping) from having sex in the future?

With many thanks!!!
