Hep A & False Positive ?

Will a Hep A vaccine that i got about a week and a half ago affect the HIV ELISA test that i took yesterday ?  I did some research and all i came up with was that Hep B would cause a false positive.

Thank you for your reply. I agree completely that i should seek some sort of professional counseling once this is all over. I think that this final result may be enough but we will have to see. I just cant wait to move on. it has been a long 3 months. You and everyone else on this site are amazing and i appreciate the help and support.

It wont affect your test, and after you get your negative result try to forget about all this guilt fear issue if you can seek for a therapist to help it always help.

Dont let the guilt get the best of you. We all make mistakes and that hopefully we learn from them, the situation is always compounded when you have someone that you feel you betrayed.

i suggest you focus your energy on the "guilt" and not hiv.

I know, i guess i am like a lot of people on this website, just very concerned. I have someone that i care very much about, and that i betrayed and could have possibly put in harms way. I just want the most accurate result so that i may move on...
