I live in a third world country and I am not sure if the equipment used here is the latest like you guys have in the US. would you recomed me to do anmy more testing? Both test were done in the two biggest hospitals in the country I live in.

They are not going to give you an HIV test that doesn't work. That's not what hospitals do. There are other posters on here from India and they have ELISA tests and Tridot test. Those are modern tests.
thank mr. teak I thought this was a doctors forum. My question is can I trust the tests done in my country? I am not sure that the test is modren and relaiable like the one's you have in the US.
