Accurate test result???

Hello, I hope soemone could hopefully relief my fear and anxiety, I have recently had a HIV test done at 12 and 14 weeks past possible exposure and these results were both negative.

I have read on the internet that sometimes you have to wait 6 months this has obviously made me very anxious again, I have been told my GU Clinic in the UK that 3 months is accurate and there is no evidence to support people's reuslts will change after 3 months.  I have been informed 3 months is 100% conclusive and this practice is used all over the world.

Your Comments would be greatly appreciated.

I've had a negative test at 81 days post exposure (Elisa) and a Oraquick at 7 months post exposure and I still think I have HIV.

I wouldn't think I do if my symptoms would go away.

I'm always tired, I bruise easily and bleed more.  My muscles are sore and i've injured my arm(i play baseball).  I also have white spots on the roof of my mouth and a white tongue but it's not Thrush(been tested for fungus).  My body is going down hill and the doctors don't seem to know what's wrong with me.

I've pretty much decided that I either have HIV or Cancer.  It has been a little over 9 months now since i received unprotected anal.  Since after my 7 month negative i have only had unprotected oral.  I just don't know what's going on with my body.  

Any thoughts???
