But what is a 4th generation? she said it was modern testing and she said it was 4th generation, what is that? she said it tested for both.

Is my 18 weeks Hiv Negative Conclusive? even thou i been taking medications everyday for my Mental Health for 10 years

Most likely she meant by both  is HIV 1 & HIV 2 its a 3rd generation Antibody test. You are HIV Negative

Conclusive if the test has been approved by a health body. Is the name "modern" test?
