Sometimes our fear and anxiety keeps us from accepting things.
Glad you've accepted your negative result so you can move on.

If your only exposure that you're testing for is oral sex then you had no risk and therefore you didn't need to test in the first place.

You would have to have been exposed to HIV to have to worry about getting a test in the first place.

You had no risk from what you have described. It is the position of the experts who used to post in the doctor's forum here in MedHelp that oral sex is not a risk. If you don't believe me, search the doctor's forum because there are millions of identical posts to yours asking the exact same question and every time they said it was no risk.  Since you had no risk then there is no reason to test.

Your last test was in December, 42 days post oral.
A test now is 100% conclusive.
Get your negative result, trust it, and look elsewhere for your issues.
I hope it settles your anxiety concerning hiv.

There's no confirmed hiv infection from oral sex.
See your Dr concerning your symptoms but they are not related to hiv from this experience.
Antigen may peak at 28 days but it doesn't leave right away and these test are very sensitive to detect them and antibodies.

No risk.
Your test proves this.
Check with your doctor concerning your symptoms but they are not hiv related from this experience.
