HIV accuracy???Please help
I am a 31 year old mexican female who had unprotected sex with a 21 year old British man from England while I met through a one night stand while in Venice. The first time he wore a condom and we fell asleep well he took it off and we had sex and he came inside me. There was a lot of fluid mostly mine I am guessing. I waited exactly 32 days to get tested because I was loosing my mind.It was a blood test which checks for antibodies and I need to know what the % of accuracy is this test. I did get checked for everything and everything was negative but I need to know what my chances are of still being positive since this test was negative. I know this was very very irresponsible but any truth will help. Every single doctor tells me different some tell me in as little as two weeks others than 28 days. Others 3 months and I am going crazy so what is the truth. Thank you

An antibody test at 32 days is 90% accurate--An HIV DUO on the other hand would be 99% accurate.You still require a final test at 3 months to put this all behind you but don't panic,so far so good.
No need for the insults. I thought you were being sarcastic. Thank you for the advice.
Yes that is not why I posted this. If you don't have anything productive to say then you should use your time in a more useful manner.
