Question/Confused

About 19 weeks I engaged in risky activity. I received oral from a female (CSW) with unknown status. I was tested for HIV on the following:

Week 5 (36 days)- Advance Oraquick HIV 1/2 oral swab- NEGATIVE
Week 7 (51 days)- Advance Oraquick HIV 1/2 oral swab- NEGATIVE
Week 9 (62 days)- Advance Oraquick HIV 1/2 oral swab- NEGATIVE
Week 11(78 days)- Advance Oraquick HIV 1/2 oral swab- NEGATIVE
Week 12 (84 days)- Advance Oraquick HIV 1/2 oral swab- NEGATIVE
Week 14 (99 days)- Advance Oraquick HIV 1/2 oral swab- NEGATIVE

Week 15 (104 days)- 3rd Generation EIA HIV 1/2 AB screen w/ reflexes- NEGATIVE

I know my anxiety is running wild and seeing someone.  My doctor tells me that I am at risk and need to come back for 6 months. Am I conclusive and do not require anymore testing? Please advise. Thank You.

After researching on this site and reading nursegirl's journal receiving oral from a woman is "no risk".  It looks like I put myself through 3 months of undue anxiety. Wow! I just wish some of these docs would get reeducated on the updates. My cousin who works in medical research with infectious disease just told me receiving oral is no risk and are constantly updating Doctors. By the way his 6 month was wrong as well. It 3 months standard antibody and 28 days for a duo. You guys do a wonderful job.

3 motnhs is generally the conclusive result for 3rd gen test. I have never seen or heard people with a different result at 3 or 6 months.
