Faint line??

Hi, does anyone know information about rapid test and results. Only possible exposure was in November (received oral)

11 days post RNA PCR NEGATIVE
27 days Elisa
28 4th generation negative
6 weeks oraquick swab negative
8 weeks oraquick swab negative
10 weeks oraquick swab negative
12 weeks oraquick swab negative
13 weeks oraquick swab negative

At 103 days I went in for rapid finger blood draw a and they said they saw a very faint line. I got really nervous and they did a oraquick finger draw right after and that was negative. They said since the first one was faint they're are sending in to get checked. Does this sound like a false positive? The second finger was negative. Has anything like this happened to anyone? Is there such a thing as false negative after 3 months? We're my results before conclusive?

My only real questions are.. do false positive happen? Would that faint line be considered a false positive?
