Hiv rapid test negative at 8th week
You can consider any test that you take to be conclusive since you never had an exposure.
Thanks for your reply but i didn't have a good sleep for the couple of weeks due to anxiety. I am thinking to get tested today which is the begining of my 8th week after the exposure. How much conclusive is the test at this week?
Thanks
Your question has no context since you had no risk. You do not have an HIV concern. You should just forget about HIV and enjoy your life.
What kind of rash appears during ARS? I had like 4 lesions on my chest with no bumps. And is swollen lymph node visible for the eye or can only be felt by touching? I can feel my lymph nodes in my neck which are of pea size?
I think if you read what I have wrotten already that you will see that you can't have symptoms, (even if you did it's too late and your symptoms ar enot even of ARS) and you do not need any testing.
Hi,
I have some problem now. It has been already 5 weeks since my exposure. I am experiencing some symptoms on my body. so far I had pain under my armpit. nothing swollen lymph nodes. and for the last couple of days I have also a cough which is not persistant. I cought for a second after drinking water. I do not really know it is caused by the virus or not. But so far, I do not have a head ache, no fever, no rash, no sore throat (even though i irritated my throat by constantly swallowing my saliva to check whether i have a sore throat or not).
Do you think the pain i experienced under my armpit and the cough can be the sign of early hiv symptom? How accuract would it be to get tested at the 6th week after exposure? I am thinking of getting tested after 3 month? what do you think?
Thank you so much in advance
your worried friend,
john
Thank you so much for your prompt reply.
YOU DID NOT HAVE A RISK as I have already said.
2 condoms cause friction and can lead to breakage. If it breaks you notice it because it doesn't cover your penis anymore.
Thank you for your reply
but i thought two condoms are good for protection. when you say they will break, do you mean from the side or from the tip? the tip was ok when i removed it from her vagina (no leaking). But i am not sure it was broken from the sides. Now I am more scared.
Regarding the touching, I touched it with my finger where there is a wound. Do not you think the virus will go through the wound?
Sorry if my questions are silly but I am terribly worried.
Thank you again for your prompt reply
Next time only use 1 condom. 2 condoms cause friction and makes it easier for them to break.
But you had no risk for HIV from touching fluids.
