Oraquick Rapid
Hello. It has been almost a year since an unprotected sexual encounter. I'm a heterosexual female and believed myself to be in a monogomous relationship but there was infidelity on his part. I had a full std screening at my local health department 90 after the last encounter of seeing my ex. Around the 5/6 month mark I took 2 oraquick tests at home, they were both negative. After another month or so I took an oraquick oral swab test performed at planned parenthood, it was negative. Yesterday (almost a year after any exposure) I had blood drawn and am anxiously awaiting the results. Can I feel confident these won't change and oraquick is as a blood test? Thanks in advance
I appreciate you responding and easing my mind over the weekend. I just called for my test results and they were in fact negative. I'll put this behind me once and for all. This site is a great resource and I appreciate everyone who offers sound advice.
