1.Can it take more than 12 weeks for results to give false negative.
2.can anxiety make this symtoms
3.How conclusive are this results.
4.i pray day and night but this doesn't go away.
5.how long does the Ars symptoms take because now is almost two months feeling very weak and sick with no solution.

Any help will be appreciated in this regard.

It is abnormal to do repetitive testing. 28 days was long enough for the 4th generation alone to do a conclusive result, so you did not have a false negative. You do not have HIV and your symptoms are unrelated.

Highest probability is a cold which everyone gets 3 times a year and/or the other highest % is your fear based on the faulty premise that you are dying is making you sweat and also over-analyze your body noticing every twitch, itch ouch etc and thinking they are something new that proves something is wrong - likely it is not any health issue at all.
If you relax and accept the science which is 40 years old then any psychosomatic symptoms that I mentioned will immediately disappear.
You have no medical training and we can't diagnose you, so if you relax and problems persist then see your doctor for diagnosis.
If you can't accept the science and relax, then you might want to check out therapy to help accept it.

Thank you very much for the response, i know its abnormal for so many tests but the anxiery, Anxiety and stress is making me to to this testmaybe I must just relax but this symptoms are killing me.i can feel that I am very sick and I have seen the Dr who cannot tell what is the cause of all this sickness of Fatique, night sweats,body ache,Sore throat sometimes,joint pains, body itching and  not sleeping at night .Final question

1.Can seroconversion occurs more than a month and do not develop antobodies which can be detected?
2.On average how long does Ars symptoms last?
3.Lost some weight since this dilemma.
4.Has there any case where after all this tests and 3 months window period lapse results will turn positive at a later stage for the same incident?

Once more thank you for the advise really appreciate
Hope all this symptoms can go away so that I can live my normal life
Seroconversion is a myth, otherwise I would have discussed it as a limiting factor to conclusiveness. End of testing issue discussion starts now for me.

Your last response indicates that unless you are able to accept my last info above, that therapy is needed to help you accept the 40 year old science that you are subconsciously trying to discredit with your own new science.
Thank you, I will try to be calm and relax.If I do not get better then the therapy will be an option.So there is no need for further tests now at 13 weeks as 12 weeks is conclusive

Thank you once more, God bless you
