need opinion about hiv, doctors say otherwise

i asked a nurse in an STD clinic here in quebec, that there is no use of doing a teste before 3 months because it will come out negative....!!?? but why does this site say 6-8 weeks is likely good enough for testing?..

i am so scared right now, because i cant think of other ways of how i got symptoms,(lymph nodes in groin,under jaw, hasnt gone down, persistent headache, pain in muscle and articulary, mucus in throat,poop, and stuff in urine(white, maybe mucus or pus,kinda cloudy ) abdominal aches, ..(plus i had decoloration of head of penis, is this cause of HIV??)

the thing is i did put a condom on but was slipping down, (i repeated myself i know..but i realy need some help, people say alot of stuff..).. ??

You can test at 4 weeks with a DUO and it will be very accurate,She was talking about no test being 100% conclusive until 3 Months.You need to follow up at 3 months for a conclusive result.

the test i took at 8 weeks is MEIA antibody HIV 1-2 and antigen p24 HIV-1, wich came out negative, she also said ''here in canada is the same like in US'', what the hell??..the test i took i believe was a ''4th generation'' wich i read is pretty accurate for testing before 3 months..

by the way, if my test came out negative at 8 weeks,(MEIA..dont know if you know it?)..is it good enough? is it likely to change? sorry for yout time..please, i appriciate it, thank you!
