i was given pep but it was administered too late 10 days after the incident i was told not to finish it only took for 13 days, i tested at 40 post exposure neg and then again at 98 days(14 weeks post neg) but i guess it would have been 75 days post the last dose of pep. it has been a big mess this whole thing. i shouldnt even be here asking questions i went to the doc about my muscles and he suggested we test again befor seeing a neruologist so this one will really be conclusive i would have thought that the other test were conclusive that is why i never bothered to ask any questions on here only the tests will tell me, but then i was confused when they were neg and my muscles kept twitching.
yes u are right i only know that now, at the time i was just given some pills in really old hospital in argentina i didnt really undertand what they were for at the time i didnt start them until ten days after so i guess they were ineffective. i tested 14 weeks post the exposure and then i realised it would have been 75 days after the last dose of pep. so i need to test again?
