You don't have HIV. You have a conclusive negative result. See your doctor if you are concern about your symptoms.

No back pain is not a symptom of HIV. You have a conclusive test result. You are HIV negative.

one last question,US is very rich country why is it that the window period in your country is longer than other poor countries,i read from your many replies that only US uses 13 weeks,where in US has all the advance technology in term of hiv testing.and tht makes me worry coz i came from poor country.

It's not. It's the way 3 months is calculated in the different areas.

Dude, your 12 week test  more than conclusively establishes your HIV status. You are NOT HIV+. If you keep beating around the bush and try to find symptoms, there is no end to it.  Drop this fear and move on with your life.
