HIV window period & Signs

An important one, please any one help!. 3 months & 4 days ELISA test for HIV 1 & 2 came back negative, 3 days later i developed skin rash on my back, lasted for 5 days & disappeared alone, flammable back & pricking pain on left hand shoulder lasted for 2 months, treated 3 times with pain healers but no improvement. This has never ever happened in my life, i am still worried, could i have belong to the group that develops detectable antibodies in 6 months time?, do i need to take another test at 6 months?, What could these signs be for?

Please help Mr. brain

Your conclusively negative from the test results you received.The only way that you could belong to the latent seroconversion group is if you were a chemotherapy patient,a transplant patient on meds or a chronic iv drug user.Your skin rash is not related to hiv.All the best.

Did you recently have a organ transplant? Are you under going chemyo? Are you a chronic IV drug user? I am guessingprobably no to all of those.

Your test is conclusive.
