Hi,

No, usually 2-3 weeks is good enough to know

It can actually take up to 6 weeks, but you are fine anyway.

And cute little pic, Iceman.

Tks - And I did receive my answer to the second Syphilis test I did just a couple of hours ago. It was negative and it was done 17,5 weeks after exposure. I had it done in relation to my hiv testing.
