Please Please Answer :((

Please please help answer my question. I am very confused. I did a combo test on 40 days past exposure and it came back negative. However, I read somewhere that there is such thing called second window period for hiv duo test which the ab/ag is both below the threshold. I am extremely worried after reading this, please please answer my question, could i move on after my negative test or an additional testing must be taken??
I am so worried.

I really hope you are correct because my 40 days hiv duo test came back negative. I heard that hiv duo test are conclusive 28 days after exposure, please correct me if I am wrong.
Thanks for the response, sir.

Tests can either be negative, positive or indeterminate. Indeterminate results require additional testing. A test that is negative, is very definitively negative.
