Question:

 

Hi, Close to 6 months ago, I had unprotected vaginal sex with a sex worker (Not sure in what state of mind I did that, but I did that...). Since then I got tested twice.
 
a 74th day test and a 88th day test.
 
The first test at 73 days says:
------------------------------------------
Detection of HIV I and II antibodies - Result : Non-reactive (.31)
Method: ELECTROCHEMILUMINESCENCE IMMUNO ASSAY
 
The 2nd one at 87 days says:
-------------------------------------------------
HIV - 1+2 screening(Ag+Ab) : Non-Reactive
Method: chemiluminescence
INTERPRETATION : NEGATIVE.
 
Are these tests reliable? I am from India... and I did the first test in a diagnostic center and the 2nd one in a very large, reputed superspeciality hospital.
 
By any chance, is the 2nd test a 4th gen DUO? If it is, will that be reliable for Antigen testing that late?
 
Can my test results be considered conclusive?
I am suffering from knee joint pains and some other dicomfort like acne... So I am worried...
 
Thanks for your help

Question:

 

Hi,

      I just want to know is 3 months definitive and conclusive? The cdc 

states that 97% will test positive at 3 months. What about that other 3 %? Are those

people with immune issues? Can hep A,B cause delayed seroconversion if co

infected? Please help me? I tested negative at 3 months after a brief

unprotected vaginal experience. I feel numb in my jaw and chin and armpits. I

can't feel large lymp nodes except for my right armpit I feel one.

Question:

I had unprotected sex on 10 December 2011. Then I had a problem after, on Dec 11 in the morning. I had pain in the groin area had a headache. I tested after 6 weeks with ELISA, which was negative. Then I had a WB test - negative, and PCR test - negative (after 86 days), and Tridot test - negative (5.5 months).

After 6 months I have a headache and tongue bumps and groin pain. Do I have HIV?

Question:

Hi, I guess you've heard this a lot of times but i just wanna ask what are the odds of being tested hiv positive after 3 months of post exposure (once had oral and unprotected sex to a female sex worker) if I were tested negative at 6 weeks? (HIV RAPID TEST in the Philippines). I am not really sure what HIV rapid test we have here in the Philippines but a feedback from you gusy is highly appreciated.

P.S:

I have this anxiety or fear of being tested positive after I was tested negative after "5-6" weeks (not sure though). Thanks so much!

Question:

I have a single exposure of unprotected anal sex. Got gonorrhea from this. 

Got tested for HIV using ELISA 3 Reagent at 4th weeks Non reactive, At 79th days Rapid Test 3 Method Non Reactive, at 97th days Rapid Test Non Reactive.. Am I conclusively HIV negative?

The Rapid Test my Lab using is Oncoprobe and SD HIV1/2. Is it reliable? 

My Doctor and Health Department in Indonesia says 3 months as the window period. But some other Doctor says 6 months. Who is right?

Question:

I am a HIV negative guy in a relationship with a healthy HIV positive guy with an undetectable viral load and no STI's. I was wondering would it ever be possible for me to not get infected with HIV and be able to a). perform unprotected oral on him and b). have anal intercourse with him without putting on a condom with me being on top. In other words, how much of a risk does unprotected anal (me being an uncircumcised top) and oral (me giving) pose to me? Is it a huge risk where I'm bound to become HIV positive if I par take in the above? Does frequency and rough/not rough intercourse make a difference and/or diminish the level of risk to me being the HIV negative, uncircumcised top. Please advice. Thanks!

Question:

 

Doctor i did mistake of doing unprotected sex with prostitude
I did combo on 98 th day postexposure
I did pcr dna and combo on 123 rd day post exposure
tests were negative
Doctor I read that not all the subtypes of hiv1 and 2 are detected by the hiv tests
my questions are
1. Is it true?
2. In my case as my symptoms are still persisting after 4 months , am i affected from any of that subtype?
3. How long it take to come pcr dna results back after giving sample for testing?In my case I was submitted the result very early that is 2 days after but before giving the blood sample the patholgist told me that resuly will come after an week.
4.Is 36 hours time enough for the pcr results to come ?
5. i did Combo test again on 123 rd day post exposure but the index was(0.11) and last time it was (0.08) ..What is this increase in value about? I am scared of this..
6.Do Hepatatis virus(no medications) extend the window period of hiv?( i dont know whether i have hepatitis)
