3 or 6 months?

Just reached 12 weeks.  Sent blood to lab result in few days.  Do I have to be retested at 6 months?  

Medication use
Heavy medical marijuana- month before exosure
Bactrim Antibiotic - 5 days (had reaction)
Hyrdoxyine HCL 25 ml- 10 days
Zaproxian, mood stabilizer- 10 days

No medication use before this for 10yrs.

Worried now I am only half way there.

High risk- multiple sex partners -sex workers protected but think I caught something through condom.  Also tried unprotected anal with GF, before this 150 days ago.

A 12 week result is not going to be any different from the 11.6 week result which you already have!

All the tests available now provide conclusive results in 12-13 weeks. What was your exposure?

Love to have a second chance. Do it right this time.  Maybe family this time.  Gf walked out on me.  Been so sick.  Think I am accepting that I cannot have sex anymore.

No medicine can alter the test results except nPEP medication. Your 12 week result will be conclusive.
