Can this diagnosis interfere with hiv testing?

I do not drink at all. Mr dr seems to think its medication based. (Antibiotic)

Sorry to beat a dead horse. But I just got back from drs with blood work done last week. My liver enzymes were extraordinarily high at time of testing.  Could that impact test? I understand high liver enzymes could mean alot of different things I'm just curious if that would constitute as a serious immunodeficiency?

Reread about "what ifs".

Elevated liver results above normal means that you should limit or eliminate alcohol consumption. Quit the heavy drinking because it's killing your liver.

NO.  There is nothing short of a serious immunodeficiency that would cause the test to be a false negative, and even then, it likely wouldn't happen.  If you had such an immunodeficiency, you would know about it and be on serious drugs just to sustain life.  Having HIV would be the least of your concerns.

Forget about this and move on.  You don't have HIV, and no "what ifs" that you can think of will change the fact that you are conclusively negative for HIV.
