So I had the test at 6 to 7 weeks, came back negative, am i at risk still of getting a positive result.

2years ago i had unprotected sex with a woman, long story short i took a test at 6 to 7 weeks..came back negative..can i be confident that my upcoming test will be negative.. I had sexual relations with three other women but there was no penetration, just oral, and mutual masturbation. Im pretty scared. I guess it comes with the territory. Hopefully i come out negative. The reason im getting retested is to ease my mind from years ago, and also because i thought i noticed two lymphnodes on the back of my neck but they feel like my neck muscles because when i contract them they get stiff and feel muscle like. so to my knowledge they are muscles. I havent noticed them before, im not touching the back of my neck all the time. and also there is no pain in them. Two days ago i developed a lump of some sort in my left armpit. hurts like hell and it feels like i cant extend my arm without there being a little pain. Is this an ingrown hair follicle, blocked sweat gland or what? My test comes back tomorrow. I hope all is well.

You don't have an HIV concern. If your bump is bothering you see your doctor.

i tested at 6 to 7 weeks after post exposure..i was anxious tho about going a second time...i read that 6 to 7 weeks was conclusive..but i always had second thoughts..then i read that for high risk,,the only conclusive result would be at three months..and that was recently..pretty late..but im jus glad its out of the way
