is it possible my test may be wrong
about 4 months ago i had sex with a girl that i knew little about i didn't use a condom and i found out a couple of weeks ago she had shot up with heroin sold her self to random men for it that included bi sexual men i didn't get word of this until about a couple of days after words then i got a really bad flu it was going around in my town but mine was really bad my symptoms were fever fatigue loss of appetite, coughing, sneezing, and diarrhea then about 2 monthes later i got sick again my symptoms were broncitis with a fever coughing and loss of appetite but possibly smoking could have attributed to broncitis well i waited 11 weeks and took a HIV test it came back negative but i still continue to have broncitis coughing up mucus and such is it possible my HIV test was a false negative
thank u so much for your reassurance i really needed it believe me and from now on im taking your advice 10 mins is not worth my life you've helped my anxiety alot ill go get take another test just to make sure like u said only the time i wont be stressed to the point where i cant go to work thank u for all your time and thanks for giving me piece of mind
HIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHLY unlikely.
with today's tests...most ppl will test positive by 4-6 weeks. just get a rapid test done...get that conclusive test result so that you can put this out of your head and resume your life without this worry.
UNTIL YOU ARE IN A MONOGAMOUS RELATIONSHIP, WHERE BOTH OF YOU HAVE TESTED...ALWAYS WEAR A CONDOM. SEX LASTS A FEW MINUTES...HIV LASTS A LIFETIME.

i dont mean to bother u again but what are the chances of it not coming back negative just curious because ive met someone im starting to care about and i dont wanna pass it on to anyone
your test at 11 weeks is as about as close to being conclusive as one can get. according to the guidelines...a test at 3 months is needed for a conclusive test result...but i would relax and EXPECT A BIG FAT NEGATIVE :)
