Do I need to test more?

Starting a serious relationship and I’m hoping to get some help/answers if I did these testing right. My only time I had sex was way back in 2009/10 and it was with a past girlfriend, I’m male. We had had sex unprotected multiple times. Fast forward after getting health insurance, 2014 my dr ask me if had sexual life and I told him only time was with my unprotected sex and the last time. He made take a blood test, I’m not sure what Generation but I believe Elisa? It came out Non Reactive.

Up to date, I’m just worried since stupid of me looking online about my white tongue and it got me thinking about my blood test if I can trust it. I do have random rashes on my upper body which I’m not sure if it’s from dry skin or not. I recently took 2 Oraquick at home and both came out non reactive as well. I think I did it right, waited 2-3 hours after last meal or do I need to take without eating like start in the morning. In general, can I trust all my test or I’m overacting with my white tongue to the rashes? Thank you for any help

Yes. Your test was taken at the right time for any standard antibody test to give you a conclusive result and you have tested negative.

There is no relation between your white tongue and HIV concern, please see a doctor for your discomfort. HIV isn't your problem.
