4th gen tests and HIV mutations

[MichalW]

Hi

I had a high risk contact with prostitute (that I later discovered, from her, had HIV and possibly other diseases)

I used condom (but the skin on the penis was probably damaged during sex - at least that's what skin doctor said examining it after 8 or 10 days - my penis head was red and painful)
We had 2 encounters (one finish inside vagina and second on in vagina but finishing with hand stimulation)
one encounter included starting with oralsex on me and than continuing vaginal in  in same condom
I also had some problems with erection and she helped me with a hand (on bare penis)- unfortunately I came to realize the risk of such behavior way to late

I had symptoms in 3rd week after encounter - throat infection that I treated with antibiotics so it finished quite often


then it was relatively calmer after 6 weeks  I still have many symptoms some of which might be stress realted such as raised and instable body tempreature diareahs, my penis is still itching quite often,

I did VDRL syphilis  test  and it was negative after 6 weeks

  


I did 4th generation tests (not sure which one exactly) after 21 days and than after 45 days both came negative


MY QUESTION IS:
1 What is the probability that this test were correct (and will confirm after 3 months) in case this prostitute had rare mutation of HIV
2 Rare mutation would be reasonable guess as she must have had sex with at least thousand guys and might have contracted different types of HIV as she did not care anymore. This lead to to cross infection and new mutations,
is this reasonable assumption?

3 do 4th gen test detect all mutations of HIV in early period (up to 6 weeks)?
4 Should i also take ELISA test after 60 days and will  4th generation test taken in 60 days be more reliable than this of 45 days - to calm me down even more (I really cannot cope with this pressure)




I would highly apreciate an answer form the doctor - I am under EXORBITANT stress
(disappointing my parents hopes  breaking their and my life), for the first time I fully realized life is is irreversible and would so much want to be different man


I REALLY NEED RELIABLE ANSWER I.E.THE TRUTH AND NOT CALMING ME DOWN
