How accurate is HIV testing after 11 weeks?
I was tested for HIV and STD test 2 months and 21 days after exposure..Everything came back negative so did HIV. I have so much anxiety about still being positive for HIV...so much that i have a dry mouth i can't eat i lost weight and pacing around the house. how accurate is this Hiv test after 11weeks and 4 days? I have panic attacks and cannot move on...should i get tested again? Please help...
You're conclusively negative based on that result. You don't have HIV. Time to move on and put this behind you.
It depends. What was your risk? Which test was it? A 4th generation duo is considered conclusive at 28 days by many experts. But all tests currently on the market are considered conclusive at 12 weeks.
