5 wks Antibody test accurate

I had unprotected anal sex (as insertive partner) on the Dec 27th, and I just had blood drawn for an antibody test on Jan 31st... about 34 days.
And tested Negative.

Should I be worried or accept the results?

Your 3 month post exposure test will be conclusive.

Take duo at 6 week after exposure.
If negative that is good indication.
and follow up 3 months just antibody alone.
I am too late test duo at 7 week :'(
although the result was negative but it is not enough.
Now I am going through 13 weeks but still didnt get test.
I hope ur result is negative

Is a five 5 week antibody test a good indication? Or mostly baseless due to lack of time?

Had to because he says oral is no risk now he's saying anal is no risk and he's suppose to be a hiv expert giving out that info

I think Teak read your post incorrectly. You did have a risk and in your other post I indicated when to test.

I have a swollen lymph node, muscle soreness, and occasional diarrhea. How can I be sure I've never had an exposure?
