HIV worried in China

[mhsere]

i had unprotected one night stand sex with some Chinese woman, i was in a bad anxiety later, as the City where i live in has no 4th generation tests for HIV, so i went to Shanghai and donated blood in the 4th week mark ( 30 days after ) and they said that my blood was qualified, at the 37 day mark i had 3rd generation test in the hospital which was negative, and at the 6th week mark i had 3rd generation ELISA test in the hospital and came back negative, please i want to know how accuracy are my tests, notice that i do not know the test method is used in Shanghai blood bank, i only know that in 2011 it was the 4th generation test
i am too worried and too anxious  


This discussion is related to hiv 4 week tests and some bumps symptoms .

I talked to the woman and she said that she has no HIV, and all the Chinese sources i read said that nobody tested 6 weeks negative and then tested positive later, so can i rest until the 3 months mark? expect 100% negative result at the 3 months mark?  please somebody help me

i knew that they use these tests as well
The specific tests currently performed include:

• ABO Rh

• Hemoglobin

• Alanine aminotransferase（ALT）

• Hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg)

• Hepatitis C virus antibody (anti-HCV)

• HIV antibody (anti-HIV)

• Serologic test for syphilis

• Nucleic acid amplification testing (NAT) for HIV, HCV, HBV

Dr's are in the Expert forum which is currently closed.

Symptoms are useless to speak of.

last thing i want to ask about that can HIV symptoms occur in the 42nd day after possible exposure?

[mhsere]

thank you very much for your replies, appreciated

Doctor i would appreciate if you answer my questions, and as i know that some Chinese doctor did work with you together, so if you had any idea about the HIV test is used in the Shanghai blood bank

All i can say is that any negative is reassuring and blood banks take testing for hiv very serious.

[mhsere]

please i am too worried, did you ever see or knew about HIV ELISA test that turns positive after 6 weeks negative test?
and i would appreciate if someone told me what test do they use in Shanghai blood bank, because for sure i do not hope to hurt anyone else

Hi, your tests were accurate and 3 months post exposure would be conclusive negative.
