Worried, need help

hello all. cant afford to ask the doc a question right now. need you guys help please. I had protected anal sex with another man. I was the top. only happened once and he told me that he was hiv negative, tested every six months. worried now that maybe i could have gotten hiv.Spoke to him later and he said that he was tested at about 5 or 6 weeks after we were together and was still neg. I tested negative at 8 weeks and 13 weeks with Home Access FDA approved test, and 11 weeks with antibody test at doctors office. just wondering chances of having hiv are despite test results and how sure i can be that i dont have hiv.

You stated you had protected sex. You didn't have a risk.

I have never posted on this site before, I know i do have what is considered a lower risk but it was MSM anal sex so it does have some risk. How accurate is the three month testing. Home access that did two of my tests said it is 97% at three months. that three percent still bothers me. in my post i meant to say that he gets tested every six months is what he told me. i have tested at 8, 11, and 13 weeks. How do i know if that is enough. I appreciate any advice. Please dont disregard me, i have never posted before and hopefully never will have to again. Thank you.

You didn't have a risk and you have a conclusive negative test that proves that fact. DO NOT POST AGAIN ON THIS ISSUE.
