thanks for the follow-up. take care. EWH
Hello doctor Hook. Just want to let you know that my HIV PCR RNA test was also negative in combination with negative antibodies+antigen screening at 120 days mark. I took it as final evidence that I am negative. Take care doctor, goodbye.
Thank you. I know how irational my thoughts are, so I think that good mental health professional is the only person which can bring me back to my normal life. But I am also very thankful for your advices. So from medical perspective I am fine, now it is time to heal my broken mind.
You provide a great service doctor!
Yes, the idea of delayed seroconversion is a myth which is promoted on the internet but does not exist.. Believe your test results. Glad to hear that you are seeking help to worh through this. EWH
Thank you doctor, your answers are very helpfull. I am still little bit anxious but I have first appoinment with psychologist at monday. I hope he will definitely help me with my irational fears and doubts. Last question doctor Hook. Is delayed seroconversion, for example between 4-6 months after exposure only a fiction? Urban myth? Idea of being infected is very scary but I am trying very hard to thing rational and collect all the evidence against HIV. Thank you doctor, wishing you good health, good bye.
Welcome to our Forum. I can answer your questions with complete confidence. You do not have HIV. There is absolutely no reason for further testing. the tests you have provide clear evidence that you do not have HIV. No further testing is needed.
1. The chance that you got HIV from the exposure you describe is zero.
2. No, there is no need for further testing.
3. Yes, the exposure that you describe has not put your wife at risk. Unprotected sex with her if safe.
4. The RNA test was a waste of money. It was already clear that you i not get HIV.
I hope my comments are helpful. EWH
