, he advised me to re-test at 9 months in additional 4 months to make it conclusive. It is possible because I have a weaker immune system and a high protien level that my body has not developed anti-bodies yet?
because the test doesnt look for
HIV
Acute hiv infection
Asymptomatic hiv infection
Elisa/western blot tests for hiv
Early symptomatic hiv infection
Hiv
Hiv infection
Histoplasmosis, disseminated in hiv patient
Hives (urticaria) - close-up

itself it only looks for the anti-bodies. My doctor refused to order me a proviral DNA and Nuclic Acid Viral Load tests.

A test taken at 5 months is reliable. Graves disease will not affect HIV tests. Your doc is being way more careful than necessary.
