HIV SCARE

[wonder2345]

I've posted before several times and am trying to accept my 3 month conclusive, however, it is impossible since I am constantly being told that I have to wait 3 more months to receive a 100% conclusive.  Received this info. from LabCorp. and Planned Parenthood.  They only place that I have found somewhat solace is on this website where everyone seems to agree that 3 months is CONCLUSIVE.   My last exposure was 2/1...low risk...oral w/ ejaculation-did not swallow, spit out and rinsed mouth (I'm a woman).  Last vaginal exposure, unprotected w/wjaculation, 1/11/08.  I have several HIV tests, last one on 5/19/08 which was negative, thank God. This was done through LabCorp., which advised me to retest in 3 months stating that it was not conclusive.  They even recommended that I do the DNA test which costs $303 and that would be 99/9%.  I'm also high risk because I have genital herpes...never had vaginal sores.  I am currently on Xanax in order to keep it together but now I'm freaking out even more because tomorrow I'm being tested for several things because I life insurance.  I'm at my wits end and just need someone to ground me.  Please don't refer me to the Anxiety forum and no bashing please.  I just need advice from anyone regarding my testing since I keep being told that I have to wait 3 more months-6 mos.  I am not an IV drug user, am not on chemo and do not know if I have any immune problems, same goes for the man I was with.  I have just had bad sinus and ear problems for about 3 months. Thank you.

3 months is conclusive, no need for more testing, labcorb said that just to try to sell the PCR DNA, 6 month test is only for IV drug user, people on chemo, antirejection drugs, ect. Please Move on, dont worry anymore about it, and giving oral sex is not a real risk, its so slim that testing isnt even warranted in most of the cases.

Hope it helps
