Hiv related query

I have tested for upto 12 months after exposure using an antibody only test. After 12 months I developed sore throat, thorat pain and lymph nodes on neck. It's now been 17 months of exposure and those symptoms still persist.

My doubt is if suppose someone is unable to develop any antibodies to hiv for a year, how would his condition be after a year? Would he be severely ill or having only mild symptoms?

Unprotected intercourse
have you posted about this before?
No never
Hm, a year later is your first time to post here? hm.  Anyway, all tests are accurate after 3 months (12 weeks) so you do not have HIV. ALL tests, no matter what your brain tells you to say next. Your test is conclusive. And unprotected intercourse is less than 1 percent risk so it makes sense you are negative.
