as long as you did a hiv antibody(Ab) test 3 months post exposure, then you are conclusively negative..
rapid tests are highly sensitive and reliable..your doctor is wrong

Hi rond44,

Yes, negative results from a rapid test will be as good as a negative result from a standard lab test.

Do not worry. You do not have hiv.


May God bless
