How accurate its the ELISA HIV test?

[IScared]

On April of 2015 i had sex with  guy i'm bisexual  the condom broke and he took a HIV test and was ELISA and he came out NEGATIVE  26 days after the exposure i took the same test and came  out NEGATIVE however since then i been  with anxiety it's been 5 months since there and in the same time i wanna take it but iam scared.  

Anyway back to my original question how accurate its the ELISA TEST?? should i have to be worry or what?

Ask them if it was a there elisa test was a combo test. If it is ag/ab then you can trust your results. If you remain worried you can do a 4th gen test anytime now and the results are conclusive.

So you think the accuracy of Antibodies-antinuclear/ELISA be a good test was a right choice?

Since then i been getting sick  like  i been getting sick from my throat ( a strep throat ) for like  4 times    over the last couple months really bad  like with white patches and pus.


This is why i'm worry because  i get sick so bad from my throat that even hurts to swollo my own saliva but i don't get any other symptoms no fever or rashes or   nodes etc  two months ago  i had like diarrhea but not exactly because i had control and when i pooped it was like liquid  so i'm really worried could other known STDS you know cause this as well?

it sounds as though he is testing to make sure he didnt get anything from you and vice versa.so ifboth of you were sure that neither one had it then obviously it would be highly unlikely but if one of you knew you were positive.that would pose a slight risk did you have any stmptoms?if not then the advice you were given will be adequate test at 3 months and if you get a negative be confident with your diagnosis .

I would say the ELISA HIV test is pretty reliable. But since you had a Unprotected sexual exposure I would say take the same test at 3 Months for a conclusive result but since he tested at 26 days as HIV Negative I wouldn't be too worried but then again it depends on when he last had sex with someone because he could still be in that window period. I'm not a Doctor but I would suggest for both of you to take a HIV test at 3 months to put your minds at rest. If you 2 are dating take it together provide support for one another since it is scary to be taking a test for something that is really scary.
