Seroconversion
What if I was exposed to HIV one time 10 years ago and no serocoversion took place. Could the virus lay dormant in my body and suddently reactivate itself after 10 years, du to some sort of mutation of the virus?. Is it at all possible?
I have red that frequently exposed seronegatives people sometimes have HIV virus found in their cells in a very, very small concentration. In this case could they suddenly become seropositive? Due to virus activation?
If you are not frequently exposed to the virus, is it still possible to have the virus in a very very small ammount, same as the frequently exposed? Or would you have to be exposed many many times?
If I only had one ore possibly two exposure to the HIV-virus years ago, could I have the virus in my cells in a very small amount and not test positive today? I mean what if I aborted the infection du to my resiliens to the virus but the virus didn't die but just went occult?
The medical papers about occult HIV, transient HIV, exposed seronegatives and so on. Have their findings been validated?

I know that, but every expert says that antibody testing 2012 is 100 % safe, taken after the window period. I cant go in to a doctors office and demand a PCR test in Sweden, if my antibody test is negative, they would rate me as crazy!
If you in some weird way did not produce antibodies if you were infected. Would you progress to AIDS with in 5-10 years?
Anyone that is infected with HIV will always have detectable antibodies and we don't do ''what if '' questions here because we deal with real exposures.
