HIV testing

Hello, Does a 4th generation test matter if symptoms happen or not. I had one at 7 weeks but started symptoms the days after and the test is negative. Do i need to test again?

The hiv symptoms are in your imagination since the test proves you don't have hiv. otherwise there would be no purpose in testing if every ailment people got could be proven to be hiv and not just a cold or whatever you got. See doc if you think there is something wrong with your body but it isn't hiv.
yes, but is the test conclusive anyway?
Yes. You are definitively HIV negative. It's time for you to move on.
