I need your advice and opinions please

Hi guys! I was dating a guy and had three unprotected encounters with him early March. He says he doesn’t have HIVand reminded me that he donates blood occasionally. But I have got bacterial vaginitis two weeks after our first encounter. They put me on metronidazole at 500 mg twice a day for a week. And since then I have been having neuropathy problems of migrating tingling, burning, twitches, crawling random parts on my body. Since March. I had a Antigen & antibody duo test done at 3 weeks, 60, and 75 days past the unprotected sex with my ex. And a rapid test done at 81 days. They all came back negative. However, I am waiting for the NAT test to come back. What’s the possibility of it coming back positive ?

If you counted the days from your last exposure of unprotected sex, then your tests are conclusive. You do not need any test further. The tests you mentioned, exclude you from the infection complete;y.  Never pay attention towards the symptoms, they have nothing to do with HIV. Seek medical help to address these symptoms

you tested conclusively negative multiple times which is abnormal, so any further testing is HIV phobia. Duo is conclusive at 4 weeks. If doc thinks you have neuro issues then work with him, otherwise if just self diagnosed that, it is likely just in your imagination from fear.
