Normal or not?

First off, thank you all for what you do. I have been reading some of the trends and it's amazing to see that people spend their free time to help other

I'm going to keep this short.

I had an exposure jan 2010 and tested at the following times
Aug 2010, sept 2010, dec 2010, feb 2011, mar 2011, June 2011, feb 2012, march 2012 and may 2012.

All were negative except for the may one. It was reactive( don't know the index value) but it was followed by a negative western blot. The dr wants to see me again. I told her when my exposure was and I couldn't tell her reaction over the phone when she called today. I told her I had previously tested as well. Should I at all my concerned? I have no idea what she is going to tell me at the appointment?

My jaw dropped when she told me and then she told me not to worry, she's seen it happen once before and she said its in my favor that I'm not in "a high risk group"...whatever that means.
Once?! So reassuring, I told her

Thanks again
