Risk assessment and Test results

Hi.

I am from Egypt , I had sex for the 1st time ever when I was in a biz trip 2 months ago , It was with Sex worker from east asia, I put the condom on and had sex . befor ejaculation I pulled out and I ejaculat out side her . I checked the condom . the Semen was in the top of the condom, Coz this is my 1st time , I really get scaered , I don't know if I use the condom in the right way or not. Also I am married and I don't want to infect my wife.

I didn't had any symptoms or any thing , All my blood tests was OK.

I went to one of my friends who works in a modern lab and her is pathologist. he told me to do P24 antigen test . I did that test @ 30 days and it was negative I also had Rapid test befor that by 2 days ( 28 days ) and it was negative . He told me when this is negative and the antibody rapid test is negative then no need to be afread coz in 30 days one of them should be picked up.


I read here and in the expert forums that 6-8 weeks is a good indecatod and unlikely to change . So I wait until 6 weeks and then I had a rapid test which came back negative. Also I had other one in the 8 weeks mark and it was negative . Thanks God.

Please answer my questions:

1- How risky is my situation?
2- How about my P24 and AB Rapid test @ 30 days ?
3- How about the Rapid test @ 8 weeks ?
4- Is there any differante in the accuracy between ELISA and Rapid Test ? I used a rapid test of a well known comapny in Meddile east and South Africa and also Russia .
5- Dr.s in the expert forum said that they didn't saw any case tested negative @ 6 weeks and turns poz after that. Does that still valid ?
6- Finally, In the 8 weeks mark , about 98% of the poz ppl with show up . does that works for the egyption ppl also or is there any differante ?

I am so sorry but you know how does it feel when you get afread of something .
