Rely on my results? (specific)

[Man_30]

Hi Doctor

1)Should i rely on my HIV result NEGATIVE [test name as  it appeared on the doc is HIV combi (Eliza)]?
or
2)Should i retake the same test or any new other HIV test?

The facts:
-Test made on 07/05/2012 (results was available after 24 hours).
-I had protected sex (never broken condom) with about 12  prostitutes when i was in the army (before 6 to 7 years and more).
-About 2 months before the HIV test i had an MRI test. Does it affected the results?
-At the time of the HIV test i was little cold with a little  cough/flu.Does it affected the results?

I'm thanking you in advance

Like Teak said, you never had a risk to begin with, therefore you NEVER needed to test for HIV.  Condoms, when they remain intact , are 100% effective in preventing HIV infection.

The test I think you are talking about is the "combo" test, which looks for both the antigen and antibody.  Again, those details are not important because testing was unnecessary.

Hi there

Do you know what the test ''HIV combi (Eliza)'' exactly means?

Thanks

You never had an exposure and didn't need testing.
