rapid hiv test questions!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
hello, this is my first post here and i have some questions about hiv. i had unprotected vaginal with a woman i met 85 days ago. i had numerous rapid gumswab tests at 27 days,31 days,37 days,41 days,52 days,61 days,72 days,80 days and 84 days. am i conclusive yet?. my symptoms have been ongoing for like a month and a half, i have had dry flaky skin on my face, pink spots off and on on my chest and stomach area, and some skin yeast. i forgot to mention that i was on numerous antibiotics in this 3 month period, i had 2 keflex prescriptions, 2 cipro prescriptions and a aztromcycin prescription. so if my issues arent hiv symptoms could they be from the antibiotics?. please respond.

You took TEN HIV tests, they're all negative. Seriously, how much more proof do you need??
Keep testing, and you run the risk of getting a false + which will send you straight into a nightmare of panic.
STOP TESTING...YOU DO NOT HAVE HIV!!!!!!!!!!!!

just got back from my 93 day hiv gumswab. and it was negative, i hope im doing the tests right, one swab on top gums and bottom gums i put some pressure to it.
what part of the statement''you are conclusively negative''is it that you don't understand.
will being on alot of antibiotics cause the immune system to slow down the antibody producing? will hiv cause a sore penis?. im thinking of spending money on another gumswab test tomorrow. help
i know i sound like a broken record, i did have a test at 84 days, along with like 8 other swabs as i stated.
i had a cbc about 3 weeks ago. my wbc was 10.1, my rbc was 5.23 and i h 25% lymphocytes? is that good.
Your symptoms are irrelevant: a negative HIV test 3 months post exposure ALWAYS trumps symptoms. If they concern you, talk to your physician, but forget about HIV is a possible cause.
the folliculitis is like a maculopapular rash i have had for 2 months.
it helps alot to hear this, but im still having folliculitis bumps on my trunk area, i have had them for around 2 months, they are scattered and start as flat pink spots, i took alot of antibiotics and they wont go away, i now have skin yeast as well, between my fingers and breast area and penis area, dry flaky skin on face..... sounds like hiv symptoms?
No you do not need to spend money any more . You are Hiv -ve .
tomorrow is 91 days should i spend more money for another hiv gumswab or no?
You went through a tough time but it's over now--you can move on.All the best.
Ok, thank you. I didnt mean to offend if i did, i do trust teak's advice, and i trust yours. I Have Bad Stress and i just wanted to hear from multiple people. Thank You Both For Taking the time to answer.
I have an opinion--listen to Teaks advice as he is an HIV expert.Your test result is 100% conclusive.
Anyone Else Have A Opinion? I trust teak's but it never hurts to have multiple opinions :-)
Thank you again sir. now im going to have to control my anxiety but thats easier said done.
No.
Thank You For Your Response Teak. My Other Question, Those Symptoms i described, did those sound like early hiv or hiv symptoms at all to you? Thank You For Your Time Sir.
