Verify doctors at a reputable clinic not far from you, what is the window for the test they have.

P.s. Usually the University/Teaching hospitals have the newest tests.

Window period is 3 months if older technology is used...reduces to either 6 or 8 weeks (forgot whether it is 6 or 8) if the latest technology is used.
