your negative results are a great indicator of the final result. it is HIGHLY unlikely that this will change. according to guidelines though...a 3 month test is still required for a conclusive result. expect a negative :)
a test at 4 week is over 90% sure a test at 6 weeks 95% 8 week about 98-99%. take it from there... go and get a test at 6 weeks then 8 then 12... but ur chances are low... you will have a 0,5% chance.
thinks maybe im thinking in the negative way.. i should think more on the positive side then ^-^
let me tell you one thing less than 0.6% of the world population have HIV. what are the chances that you selpt with one. the stats (according to the doctors in the expert forum) say the the chances with unprotected vaginal is 1/2000. you tested at 6 weeks and you had a -ve result 85% of the +ve results will show at 6 weeks if not more. you do the maths and calculate the chances that you have it.
thanks of the reply aak001, and also to danishadult but im still quite anxious and i mean no offend and i know u mean good for me... what i really worry was that the girl that i have s*x with seems to have lypostrophy.. i really dunno what to do but her action after sex make me feel very very worry
i have s*x with her, she mention that she does not want to take off her cloth, and i felt her breast and tummy is loose fats which resamble lypostrophy... while having s*x she ask me to lick her, she keep close her teeth tight on my toung and lips like bitting it. and after all those kissing and petting she ask me i want to have s*x with her...
i going through this thought every day it make me feel so sick and there is no one i could turn to... and i start to feel very depress... and ever think of the bad side of...
only a doctor can tell you if your lymph nodes are swelled or not dont try to judge it yourself niether you nor I are trained to do that.
My friend you can have all symptoms with out have HIV! Symptoms mean NOTHING. go and read here how many that have the symptoms with out even have a RISK! persons like me... only a test can prove that if you have HIV or not. so take a test..
regarding lymph nodes swell what is the defination for swelling? this really troubles me alot... what i mean was how big is consider as swell/swelling
usually when lymph nodes swell due to ARS they are generalized that mean that they happen in more than part of the body rather than just on yiour neck for example arm pits, groin, ext. well as the others told you i think you are going to be fine 6 weeks is a very good indecation ;) plz. stop reading bullsh*t on the internet regarding symptoms
i din't know, i know her for less den 1 month and she say to me that she want to have sex relationship with me... i went for it and now im in my biggest regret... and that was the first time i fool around with someone, i really really regret... i really don't what to do now
now i only read up the forum when my lymph nodes start poping up under my jaw and i came to something it mention lypostrophy and some how i feel that she have loose fats on her breast and tummy....
get down anxiety&stress/dep and can cause swollen lymfe node and all the other symptoms if you keep reading enough and constantly anxiety/stressed because ur immune will get so much down so you more likely to get infections and on because of the stress,anxiety,dep i you at 8-10 weeks go and get a HIV blood test and you can sleep well but as you said you had unprotected sex so you will need to test out at 12 weeks but like the experts says its just because they want to be conservertive and want to make sure they say 12 weeks. a 6 weeks blood test is a good indication and you are nearly in 8-10weeks that would be conclusiv.. but a 12 weeks is needed.
i dont think its going to effect anything. was the a CSW in other words was she from a high risk group?

6 weeks –ve is very encouraging. Stop trying to diagnose your lymph nodes and let a doctor check. Also I will tell you what I was told on this forum and it really helps stop reading bullsh*t on the internet regarding symptoms because due to your anxiety you are going to see them pop one after the other.
while experts come and answer this from what dr HHH says 6 weeks test is almost 100% sure.
wait for someone else to answer though but since you're quite nervous this fact might help you a bit for the moment before you get further reassuarance.
