worrying about HIV
hai,
I had sex with a philippino sex worker aged 43 on October-2010.After two weeks i had rashes,especially on my chest and upper arm and neck.I feeled very fatigue also.I lost my apetite also.But i never loss my weight.At that time my symptoms are 1]rashes on trunk, 2]feeling fatigue, 3]loss of apetite ,4]sleeping disorder, 5] improper digestion.
I took a vaccine against chicken pox on May-2010 [before 5 months of that intercourse.Is it affected my test result.
After 4 or 5 weeks[i think 4 weeks] i undergo HIV Elisa Duo test [p24 antigen+antibody] test,it was negative.
After 1.5 month the symptoms disappeared.
Then After 60 days[8.5 weeks] i did my test again with the same method[p24+antibody],it was also negative.
After that, from dec 17 onwards one of my lymph node became swell [behind my left ear].It is continuing till now.
I tested again after 114 days [16.2 weeks] on 5th february 2011,it was also negative.
But i am worrying about HIV
I also did Kidney functin,Liver function,and blood r/e, afetr 18 weeks,all test shows good health signs.
After 22 weeks,i tested Blood r/e,it shows the Lymphocytes slightly increased.
I am worried now.Anybody please help me.
1)Am I infected with hiv ?
2)My vaccine against chicken pox delays the formation of antibodies..?
I am suffering from very anxiety now..

Best Answer
You tested negative at 114 days post exposure.You are hiv negative conclusively.Stop testing.Hiv is never diagnosed on the basis of symptoms alone.Your symptoms are related to something other than hiv.You have already been told this on a previous post.
Your HIV test is conclusive...no more testing needed.

3Months is conclusive.Full Stop.The only exception are chemotherapy patients,chronic iv drug users and transplant patient but even those situations are rare.No,there is no evidence that supports the vaccine theory.
i heard that the test after 3.5 months are conclusive.but now also i am suffering from the symptoms,swollen lymphs.Does the vaccine i already took affected the antibody production..?
