There is a second test, called a RIBA that is more definitive for antibodies in cases like yours. I think your PCR has a good chance of coming back negative, no viral RNA found, but you'll just have to wait for it to come back. No RNA found would mean that you do not have the virus. Sexual transmission is pretty uncommon.
