Your test is highly unlikely to change at this point, which means you probably got lucky. Repeat a standard antibody test at 3 months for your conclusive result...and from now on, use condoms from start to finish.
Hiv 1/2 sounds like an elisa antibody test. Most of the places 3rd and 4th generations are used. However the generation doesnt matter. Any test is conclusive at or after 12-13 weeks.

1. Anxiety
2. Take a test at 12-13 weeks.
Dont worry, your result is not going to change.
