But my personal opinion , you dont require any test all you need to visit a therapist for your anxiety. i suggested for your peace of mind , please trust your results. After PCR dont come back with your symptoms.

You are negative You don't gave HIV.
A negative test after 12 month's proves without a doubt you are negative.
Once antibodies are produced by your body, they stay there and are detectable unless you are on antiviral drugs.
Have you tested for other STIs, since you are having symptoms?

There are cases as they said. You have tested in 1 year. So believe your test results.  If you still not agreeing get one pcr rna test. It will detect hiv virus particles.sometimes false positive may occur with this test.but most of the lab will confirm the same with wb test.

answer by the body experts : In general, the answer to the question is yes. However, there are cases where people have very advanced HIV infection and AIDS where they don't make enough of certain kinds of blood cells that produce antibodies, and therefore, HIV antibodies might not be detectable.
