12 months test
Hi folks. In november 2010 I had my only risk behaviour in my life. I have protected vaginal intercourse and unprotected oral sex bothway with CSW. I had huge amount of HIV tests since then. 31 of those test were HIV COMBO antigen+antibodies and 5 were INSTI tests. I have tried to cover every window period. My 3 months , 6 months and 9 months COMBO tests were negative. 11,5 moths INSTI was negative too. Now I am thinking about my final test, exactly one year post my exposure. I have appointment in local healthcare clinic next monday and I will take my last test. Could I be very sure that my test will be negative? I had no exposures since november 2010. Sorry for my bad english, hope you´ll understand. Thank you
cannot belive this....................3 months rapid antibody is conclusive and noones test results has ever changed after 8 week negative,,.....a 8 week is a test that will not change but at 12 weeks everyone can hav a peace of mind
This will come as a surprise to nobody-you have wasted a year of your life worrying about something you was not at risk of in the first place.
So you think I am completely safe in respect of HIV? I trust my results in medical way but my mental health is very poor. I convinced my self that my final test will be exactly 1 year post my exposure ( you think non exposure). I am sure that if my final test comes out negative I will be ready to go on with my life. BUt I am scared of imagination it comes out positive. My history of tests since 8th of november is excessive but still I need this one last test.
Dear oh Dear,what a waste of time and effort for nothing.You had NO risk for Hiv infection in the first place.Oral sex is zero risk and the penerative sex was protected.Stop testing and please don,t tell me your doctor suggested to you that you test because if he/she did then find another doctor that knows about Hiv transmission modes.Your safe
