We can't answer why this or why that.
Antibodies will always be produced so you will always test positive.
Any answer for the above?
Teak one last question, is it true that people in advanced stage of HIV test negative? And why PCR DNA is not used for testing while it's available and more reliable or PCR RNA? And why some doctors on other websites recommend this type of test to make sure that symptoms are not HIV related? Thank you in advance
You don't have an HIV concern.
Thank you teak:) so no need for any further HIV testing and shall check with my doctor for those symptoms??
One really scare me the hair loss specially from eyebrow I feel like one layer is already gone!! And the tingling everywhere!!
Then you know you don't have HIV.
Thank you teak. Shall I go for another test? My symptoms are so severe one making me very sick! My dermatologist saw some small white pumps on the upper corner of lips and told me this is a viral infection!! I also have a low grade fever every time I woke up in the morning, stomach pain, and pain in testicles and esophangus and feel my skin is burning specially palms and thigh and lots of small red/brown dot here and there!! Are those HIV or AIDS related? Also why on some other sites they recommend pcr testing?
Your doctor is wrong. a P24 is good from the end of week one to week 4 post infection.
I took a combo test recently and it was negative and doctor told me that even I reached aids stage if antibody is not detected the p24 will? Is that correct? Or the p24 will only be benefial in the early infection? Am asking because I have lots of symptoms! Thanks in advance
Then you don't have a P24 concern.
Yes but long time ago (3 years) 5 unprotected sex with sex workers.
