No it is not a Duo test. Yes it is a 3rd generation test.

Looks like it is HIV-1 Antibody Test with Reflex to Western Blot Confirmation. Is this DUO or it is still alone?

Had you had a risk the US's latest approved test is a 4 th generation DUO test. The latest antibody alone test is 3rd generation that tests for both HIV1 and 2.

Hi, one for question please,

Just in case I want to do a blood test, so would you know if those online services that provide HIV tests are legitimate? And would you know  the latest generation test for HIV antibodies that are currently used in US?

You had a protected sex and were therefore not at HIV risk. The symptoms could be consulted with a doctor. Don't wear double condoms at once because they actually increase the chance of breaking. Stop thinking that you have HIV, you didn't have it from that intercourse.
