hiii
i got my 85th day HIV ELISA test result,it says i am negative (with index value- 0.004,cut off value- 0.24)i even don't know which generation it is.
i could not believe my test result.
i still have all those symptoms u mentioned along with penile pimples,burning tongue etc
i am confused whether the prolonged use of antibiotic delays the window period

the place wer i live (india) doctors are not convinced with the 3 months test but advise testing till six months
my tests have been
ELISA HIV 1&2 at 5weeks NEGATIVE (generation unknown)
COMBAIDS 1&2 at 7 weeks NEGATIVE
ELISA HIV 1&2 at 9.5weeks NEGATIVE
ELISA HIV 1&2 at 10.5weeks NEGATIVE
ELISA HIV 1&2 at 12weeks NEGATIVE
with the symptoms such as a sore throat , Swollen lymph nodes , joint pain still persisting .. what are ur thoughts on this ?
would u suggest me retesting again??
You never had an HIV exposure.
they say you cannot get swollen lymph nodes from stress it has to come from infection wither its a cold, flu, hiv, cancer, or other problem I wonder why so many people though get them even though they come back negative that is something the puzzles me yeah winter is starting I can understand why people would be worried being having hiv is one of the major symptoms of acquiring it.
I also am suffering from this dilemma I feel for you guys but then again you have to trust the science and after so much time has passed id go with the negative results and drop it unfortunately im in my first 2 week 1 day mark and I have a while to go before i can test.
Yes it would be conclusive.
hi teak ,
i got a test at 12 weeks (elisa) don no which gen .. it was negative do u think it is conclusive??? i still have my neck swollen n sore throat which is not going at all
You never had an exposure and never needed testing.
Did u do any further tests ????
i am going thru similar symptoms at 74th day

teak i know u advised me to take a test after 3 months but my illness is so bad that i can hardly do any of my work properly ... these lymph nodes on my neck keep swelling and also painfull .. have severe fatigue ... strep throat and i can hardly sleep ... if its not hiv i can check with my doctor for other diagnosis thats the reason i got tested ... never in my life i had such illness
When were you advised to obtain your conclusive test result? It doesn't need to be repeated.
