Well, thanks for the link.  I think you're sort of taking the info out of context.  Here's the doc's reply:

It is true that "sometimes people with aids test negative for hiv antibodies".  But it is exceedingly rare, probably less than 1 in 1,000 infected persons.  And as your question suggests, it is seen primarily in people with advanced AIDS, i.e. sick enough to be near death.  Had those people been tested earlier, most would have had postive blood tests earlier in their illnesses.

It is uncommon for overt AIDS to develop as early as 3 years after infection.  No matter when that happens, it is almost impossible for someone who looks and feels well to have such advance HIV disease.  Anybody with such advanced infection will have had many health problems, which would have led to the diagnosis of AIDS.  In other words, if you feel basically healthy and your HIV test is negative, you can be 100% certain you are not infected.


While I am personally not aware of anyone testing negative after infected, even in the terminal stages, I believe what the doc is saying.  Did you thoroughly READ the answer though?  You're trying to find a way that you're infected despite having multiple negative tests...it's just not going to happen.

I would advise you to post in the doctor's forum.  Maybe they can put your mind at ease for you about this.  Not sure what else people can tell you.  HIV tests are extremely accurate, and they're very straight forward, unlike some medical conditions which are difficult to diagnose.  HIV isn't.  You don't have it.

Good luck, there's nothing else we can tell you really.

Not that it will probably convince you, but our doctor's forum is here:

There is a fee to post.  They're going to tell you you don't have HIV.

Kindly move along.

doctors in this forum aay people in advanced stage would test negative!!

Post the link where they say that please.


Once a person is +, they are always positive.

You have WAY over tested.  It's not possible for you to be infected, as your tests would have been positive.

You need to seek professional help to assist you in accepting that.
