HIV risk
I was raped 8 months ago and had a high HIV risk encounter. I don't care to describe it more in depth than that.
I was tested using the Quick Test at 2 months and at 3 months. Both were negative. I have no immune-compromising disorders. I am a reasonably healthy young woman. I also tested negative for all other STD's.
I am still worried about HIV. I am getting tested again in a few days. Before you accuse me of being paranoid or obsessive, yes, I am. But wouldn't you be in my situation?
How accurate is the test at 3 months using the Quick Test with results in 20 minutes? Should I be worried?
