unprotected vaginal sex with person of unknown status and also received oral from person of unknown status and to be honest i really think this woman may be positive i got a negative result after 2 months using the ora sure rapid swab test after having swollen glands in throat and slight cough but couldnt shake it and now i have this rash.

as you know, 6 week past exposure test is about 95% conclusive. your 2 month test is pretty good indicator that are not infected.

as I know, your rash does not fit in the ARS symptoms as it is too late for ARS. I think you have nothing to worry.

Experts like Teak may be giving you proper advice or info.

Obtain your conclusive test at 3 months and don't be having unprotected sex with persons you don't know their status.
