age 68 yrs. had unprotected sex on 15 06 2011. got terrible bladder pain next day. got elisa test after 15 days. negative. got pcr dna test on 29 08 11. negative. got weston blot test on 05 09 2011 negative. got elisa on 15 10 2011again, negative. firstly, age is against me. secondly, took pain killers during all these tests. are pain killers immunity suppressors? is it possible that all tests came negative because of and old age drugging? terribly worried. burning persistent. please advise
You don't have any unprotected sex with anyone while you're waiting to be tested if you believe you had had an exposure.
NO,only if you have had a risk during the window period the waiting starts again.
sir, is it presumed (for the tests beyond window period) that the person getting tested has abstained from sex during the window period? if he has sex with safe partner in this period has he to wait clear 3 months again?
Sir your tests are all new Generation no need to wait for 6 months. and not 12 weeks, 16 weeks 101% conclusive. anxiety makes you fever.
You don't have HIV you have a conclusive test result and if you feel unwell see your doctor it is not an HIV concern.

16 weeks is fully conclusive,6 Months is rubbish and outdated.Stop stressing,you don't have HIV.
is an Elisa test after 16 weeks conclusive once and for all? is it possible that there may be the possibility of some persons developing antibodies after this period? somewhere else i read that a test after 6 months is more conclusive. please advise. although i was Elisa-tested after a period of 16 weeks, i have this feverishness and sore throat (8 days)after 6 months.
You wouldn't be alive if you didn't sleep for 6 months.You can sleep in peace now because you're safe.
thanks a lot madam,
after 6 sleepless months, i could sleep full 8 hours without medication yesterday. hope this continues in days to come.
thanks again.

your test PROVES that hiv is not your problem...further testing is not needed.
if you are having health concerns, see your dr to find the cause. it's not hiv related.
