4 weeks after blood test
I had practice protected safe sex on 21 December 2010 with a sex worker. She took my penis and rubbed against her vagina, but with her underwear on. 3 weeks later on 15 january 2011, I was tested with Chlamydia and negative for HIV. I was given doxycycline for 7 days. On the 23 january 2011, I went for another HIV test and was again negative. Now I am wondering did the condom break while having sex. I know that there's a window period of 3 months. I had been feeling nausea, and vomited as well. The doctor told me that's the side effect of the antibiotics. 3 days after the completion of Doxycycline, I m still feeling nausea and Having dizzy spell. I am very scared and depressed as I am getting married in a few months time. One mistake and It will be a death penalty if I am infected with HIV. I was already planning for suicide. Can anyone help me please? I really need help urgently!
Thanks guys, sorry as I am paranoid over this issue. I m trying to eliminate all possibilities
Your story is changing, As you were told you would have known. You had no risk.
For someone that had a risk a test at 6-8 weeks is a good indicator and is unlikely to change at there 3 month conclusive.

Hi Lizzie, sorry again. I was pretty drunk that day. Therefore I couldnt remember whetther the condom broke. If this worst case denarii happens, does the report that I tested deem to be accurate?
Hi Lizzie, thank you for your response. May I ask what is the accuracy since I had been tested negative 4 weeks after exposure. I noted that the window period is 3 months. M I consider safe?
if your condom had failed...you would have known. instead of seeing a condom...you would have seen your penis.
you had NO risk for contracting hiv from what you have described.
