A test for HIV 3 months post exposure is regarded as accurate, so you can rest assured that with a negative result 7 months after is conclusive. Not to mention that although you had a risk it was an incredibly low one, so you should try not to stress yourself out, its very exhausting mentally and physically. Move on and all the best!
