Is it possible

To go through ARS and then continue experiencing HIV related symptoms but still test negative after 3 months even in rare cases. I ask because there are a small percentage of people who won't test accurately for maybe 6-12 months and was just wondering if that would stil be the case had they been experiencing a host of symptoms.

Thanks,

psoriasis and eczema are immune disorders. Do those count?

Those rare cases are due to immune disorders...anti organ rejection drugs, chemo. That's all.

uh, lost you there on your comment teak. can you put that in lehmans terms. Basically I just wanted to know if a person was one of those rare cases that had to wait 6-12 months to turn positive would they still be able to experience ARS 2 weeks to 2 months after exposure and still test negative after 3 months?

No 3 months is conclusive.
