61 days after high risk encounter -- fatigue?

[loknar]

Hello.  On May 6th (61 days ago) I had a high risk, unprotected insertive anal encounter with an escort that I have seen several times before (but never unprotected).  It was a brief, 30 seconds or so incident in the shower before I freaked out and pulled out. I am not going to post a lot of stuff about symptoms because I know they are not indicative of infection, but I did have some sore throat about a week after the incident, which went away in about 5 days.  From there, I went on to do several Oraquick tests at 27, 32, 37, 54, and 60 days following the home kit instructions.  All show negative without even a faint positive line at the 20 minute mark.  I also had a 34 day 4th generation duo test done through Quest Diagnostics (code 91431x was apparently the test code) which came out non-reactive.  I am now at the 61 day mark, having just gotten another blood drawn for a follow-up 4th generation test.  Should I feel pretty confident that my testing is going to continue being negative?

The only weird thing I have been feeling lately is a bout of unusual fatigue over the past five days or so.  I would get up at around 6:30-7am, and feel somewhat tired for the rest of the morning -- not enough that I have to get back to bed immediately, but enough that I feel I want to nap for an hour.  During the evenings I am pretty alert.  I don't know if it's due to missing a lot of sleep lately due to this HIV anxiety (been averaging about 6 hours or so a day), but I do hear that fatigue is one of the things associated with HIV infection.  Given my description and the results I have already tested for, what do you think or the chances I will be negative at the 61 day mark?  Thank you.

You do not have HIV

hi all.  I have another update.  I just got my 61 day 4th gen duo test results.  Non-reactive.  Do you think I can finally move on?  Could not sleep at all last night waiting for the results and I really hope I can finally rest now.

Another possibly pesky question: have any of the experts here witnessed or personally heard of 34-day duo negative later turn out to be positive, regardless of risk?  Specifically, the test I took is the Abbott 4th gen test.  And in general, does risk level teally have an impact on accuracy of the test at 34-days?

Thanks James.  Regarding fatigue (and loss of appetite which I now also have) as potential results of a seroconversion event, is it likely that they are occurring just now after 8 weeks post incident?  And if so, would I also likely be experiencing fever ( I have read that it is a pretty common associated sign with acute infection).  Thanks

Yes.

Thanks for the reply, Ruby.  Could anxiety about my health be causing the fatigue I am experiencing?

A Non-reactive (negative) result means that the test did not detect any HIV antibodies at this time.
You should feel confident that your negative status will hold.
