Pericarditis, Negative Test.
Hello everyone, ill try to make this short. almost thirteen weeks ago I had unprotected vaginal intercourse with a woman of unknown HIV status, although she said she didnt have it. I am heterosexual. I was tested at 5 and 12 weeks exactly with rapid tests both were negative, i also tested negative for all stds. and everyone Ive talked to said i am conclusively negative, however, after not feeling well this weekend I went to a local clinic and after many tests I have been diagnosed with Pericarditis, and after some research I have discovered that there is a connection between HIV and pericarditis, I was moving on and feeling better about myself, but after this weekend's diagnosis I am yet again doubting the tests, Im scared yet again, so if anyone out there could shed some light on this it would be much appreciated. God bless all of you! One love! Furthermore, I dont mean to be a burden to anyone on here, or trying to annoy anyone but this has me worried. Thanks a million.
