i ask the clinic and they tell me this elisa test is 99.5% true
ok. so this ELISAtest is FDA approved or not. because i'm from asia and dont now about FDA approved. i don't have sex risk. dont do a sex right now. is 4 month already. and i think my window period is end.
your 4 month negative test was conclusive as long as it was an FDA approved HIV diagnostic test. If you have had no other sexual risks, then you are fine.. but if you have had another sex risk, then you need to wait 3 months from that date to test again..
last time i do sex with prostitute. after 4 months i do elisa test and the result is negative.
rigth now i want to now my status if i am still in window period and safe. should i do another test to confirm back
Home Access, Oraquick and Elisa tests are all conclusive at 3 months... negative at 3 months and you are negative. don't even worry about 6 months.. like i said, 3 months is conclusive.
By not approved does that mean there is no type of research and or tests done on these tests or that they have been researched and tested and the findings show that they are bunk? cuz even if they are 90% right Im not throwing my extras out....
Just curious, please don't tell me to....MOVE ON
thank u so much for your input. i felt pretty darn good about the home access tests that i took but then when they were discredited to me to others, i got nervous. i guess i hear supposedly that 6 months is also conclusive but i am accepting my 17 week & 20 week NEG tests from Home Access. I however have one more test that I already bought when I had them shipped, so I guess I either sell it on ebay or use it at my 6 month marker. Oh btw, when they say 6 months do they mean 24 weeks or do they mean 26 weeks. I just didnt know if they mean weeks or calendar months from date of risk. it's all so confusing and everyone gives different info on sites. Thanks again.

EZ tests are not approved anywhere.
Home Access is the only home collection kit that is FDA approved.
So are you saying the test kits on THIS site are bunk http://www.easykit.info/
???
It says Home Access on the page, but is this a scam page?
as far as the test kits from China.. they are not FDA approved and are not accepted as a vaild result..Only Home Access is FDA approved and has went through vigorous studies to show its validity and plenty of clinical trials..Heck, do research on dried blood spot testing and you will see that hospitals used dried blood spots to do all kinds of diagnostic blood tests all the time..especially on babies..So, you should feel confident in the Home Access test... again, any other HIV test that is not Home Access is not FDA approved or home use...
The Home Access Kit is FDA approved and is a very valid test when you are out of your window period at 3 months if you receive a Negative result, you are negative. it is the only test that has FDA approval for home use...these people that told you their opinion on the test do not know what they are taling about...the test has a 99% accuracy rate. it is just as reliable as an ELISA test. so, man, if you tested negative at 3 months, then you are negative... please feel confident in your result..
do you know anything about these test kits? any input is appreciated. thx
That's a good question, because i know alot of people who use those testing kits...like the instant one that comes from China and you lance yer finger and drop 1 drop of blood and 2 drops of water and then wait.....
Are they pretty accurate?
