I had anal sex with a guy, I was not the "Preformer, not recepiant". He stated my condom came off, but I did not enter him. I must of brushed up against his rectum, though. He stated he had not been with a guy in almost a year and that he took an hiv test about 9 mos ago, which was negative. This occured between 11 and 14 days ago. Is there any difference between a reg. hiv test and a rapid hiv test? Thanks for your help
If you didn't have penetrative anal sex you didn't have a risk.
Is there any difference in testing for elisa or rapid hiv test? Is the Rapid any better? Don;t know much about the testing procedures?
Did you have penetrative anal sex or not?
"He stated my condom came off, but I did not enter him."
you were NOT at risk...testing is not needed.
Is there any difference in the elisa and the rapid hiv test? As I mentioned earlier, I don;t know much about these things.. I guess what I mean is the rapid hiv test more sensative that the regular test you would go get and what is the wait time on the rapid?
IF SOMEONE HAD A RISK AND NEEDED TESTING (which you did not) either test would be fine.
a test done at 6-8 weeks gives a good indication of someone's status...but 3 months is conclusive.
ONCE AGAIN...YOU WERE NEVER AT RISK. HIV TRANSMISSION REQUIRES PENETRATION.
