question to teak or anyone

by im_scared, Jun 29, 2007 06:00PM
whats the difference between hiv-1 and hiv-2?  my rapid test result at 13 weeks returned negative as i told you but according to the result sheet i got from the lab, they only tested for hiv-1/11 antibodies.

1) whats hiv-2 and should i be worried about it?

2) i saw on another thread where this lady was worried about it also and someone asked if she had sex with a black male ... im a black male, does that affect my status in terms of hiv-2?

please dont be anoid by my questions, it just seems everytime i try to get over this something new presents itself.

im a black male living in the west indies. i have just 2 usernames for i realize most people dont respond to a second or third question in my thread so i thought that was the only way to get answers sometimes. im sorry if thats wrong but please understand how scared i am, everytime i think im over it i see something new to worry me. can you please tell me what you know about hiv-2 and should i be worried.    does hiv-1/11 antibody test means they test for hiv-1 and hiv-2?

Yeah, that's wrong because you bumping down other people's questions.
It's just not right to have 5 threads on the first page of the forum.

There is no HIV-11.  
You got tested for HIV-I and HIV-II.
Ever heard of roman numerals?
