Anxiety about HIV Rapid Test

What are the possibilities of a blood rapid hiv test being a false negative after 12months? Iv read that the rapid tests can make mistakes. I did not give myself the test it was administered by a worker at the HIV clinic in my town. Also i forgot to ask if having celiacs disease would affect any anti bodies or the test. .
