Hello, I'm 25 years old man from Russia. In December 2008 i had a vaginal sex with CSW in Kazakhstan. Sex was safe, but condom was cheap and its quality is questionable.
After 45 days since that risc the result of HIV test (Abbot Architect Combo Ag+Ab) is NEG. Also, no STD's was detected.
Today, after 56 days since that risk, i did another HIV testing in my city's best lab, but the result would be ready in 2 days.
So, i would like to ask you a few questions:
1. Did i have a real risc of getting HIV ?
2. Can i trust today's test or additional testing is needed?
3. What's the difference between Abbot AxSYM and Abbot Architect systems?
4. What is the maximum time of seroconversion on Architect system?
P.S. Sorry for my English, but i hope you understood what i wanted to say :)
