On december of 2009 i had condom failure with a csw which ended her been positive since then i had some clinical symptoms of hiv but tested via ab elisa 1&2. Right now i am on treatment of nystatin for oral thrush and still suffering from severe nuero spasm and swollen neck and pelvic gland. Doctors here highly suspect a virus but which one is the question so they taking different viral analysis but so far nothing found.
A good doc of ours advice to use the abbott real time rna pcr which can identify all diverse infection which is not available here in malaysia please if anyone know the closest country i can it should post or any alternative.

Thanks teak, we have tried those antibody test but the problem here is most test here are not fda approved. Anyone who knows if i can get the at least the fda approved test in either singapore or thailand. Any neighbouring country please.

what matters is whether its approved in malaysia, if it was done in a govt approved clinic or hospital then thats it you need to put everything to rest, since u took the test 3 month post exposure, you dont have hiv.. There is nothing spectacular in singapore or thailand.

Man i live here i know there is huge difference in health diagnostic equipment things here are of poor quality standard. For example i was tested with intec hiv 1&2 test kit and this kit is not even approved in china where it is manufactured.

tests in malaysia are very verry good and reliable..i dont know where youre getting ideas about diagnostic equipment here being not good..as long the test is approved by Kementerian Kesihatan Malaysia, then you are good to go..a test at 3 months post exposure will be conclusive
