Test results
Hi, since my exposure ive had multiple 4th generation tests my last was 20 weeks after possible exposure. I had the 10 panel std from labcorp i tested positive for hsv 1 4.11 and hsv 2 .91 equivocal, if says on the test that equivocal could mean early infection, where i havent had sexual contact not even kissing since my exposure. Could this mean that my immune system is week at producing antibodies and can thus test positive for hiv later on, or does the fact that i tested so strongly positive for hsv 1 rule out the fact that my body is unable to produce antibodies. Also since i am positive wouldnt that mean hiv rna would be detectable, had that test done as well at 97 days. Looking to move on and put this issue past me finally just need some answers.
A duo is conclusive at 4 weeks, so it was abnormal to test multiple times for the same disease. You needed to move on long ago, and forget about all the analysis you are trying to do - with no medical training it is just a bunch of assumptions and guesses.
Further testing will indicate HIV phobia, which is a mental health problem that requires a therapist to deal with. This is an HIV prevention forum and you can't have HIV.
