Being anaemic affect hiv test result?
Does bring iron deficient and anaemic have any impact on a 4th generation hiv test result? The fact that anaemic means having less blood, make any difference to hiv antibodies and antigens?
Best Answer
No, and you can get answers to any question about medication, interactions and tests from the manufacturer, because they are required to have this info for people who use their products.

Well I have no idea what test it was or who was the manufacturer and to approach my lab and ask them and then email the manufacturer etc seems like too much of a process. So that’s why I came here as I’ve seen lots of people ask similar questions so I assumed you guys have the knowledge. So just to be absolutely sure, anaemia doesn’t affect an antigen/antibody test right?
