Hi.

HELLO I WANT TO KNOW IF I HAVE HIV OR DO I HAVE ANY ANTIBODIES OF HIV. IT SAYS ON MY QUEST DIGNOSTICS PAPER THIS HIV AB, HIV 1/2, EIA, WITH REFLEXES HIV 1/2 EIA AB SCREEN. A NON-REACTIVE HIV-1/2 ANTIBODY RESULT DOES NOT EXCLUDE HIV INFECTION SINCE THE TIME FRAME FOR SEROCONVERSION IS VARIABLE. IF ACUTE HIV INFECTION IS SUSPECTED, ANTIBODY RETESTING AND NUCLEIC ACID AMPLIFACTION (HIV DNA/RNA) TESTING IS RECOMMENDED. RPR (DX) W/REFL TITER AND CONFIRMATORY TESTING. DOES THIS MEAN I HAVE HIV?
please some one get back to me thanks.
