question to teak or anyone

question to teak or anyone

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.

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?
