I don't know which generation tests these were so need your advise.
Can someone please reply I am really scared
Dude since no one is answering you i ll give you a reply.Get tested with a rapid test just standard rapid test
I did get tested with a rapid blood test. The one where they take a sample of your blood and get back with the result in 20mins! But I dunno which generation tests they are! So terribly worried. And have had all the symptoms related to ars. Been stupid enough to sleep with someone without using protection. I just wanna get out of this with a negative result so that I can get on with lyf. Learnt my lesson.
at 9 week, while not conclusive, is still predictive.
Test at 3month with standard antibody test post exposure.u will get ur conclusive result.
Dont worry all ur result are accurate n full proof that u r nt infected .have 3month negative result n can be safe use condom next time coz sex last for minutes n hiv for lifetime.good luck
Thanks everyone. I know that at 3 months is conclusive. But was just worried about the symptoms. The swelling in my right armpit has still not gone. Even after 1.5months. **** scared! Pray for me.
As usual, akssoni isn't giving completely accurate information.
Your 9 week test result is an excellent indication of your status, but you will still need to follow up at 3 months for a conclusive result. At this point, your test results are highly unlikely to change.
This is a good lesson learned about the necessity of condom use for each and every episode of vaginal or anal sex.
Thanks a lot nursegirl for replying.
1) But what about the symptoms? Don't they diagnose hiv? The high fever, sore throat, headaches, rashes and swollen lymph nodes?
2) Today I complete my 12 weeks. Will go for a test in a day or 2. Do I need to test again after this if by gods grace the test is negative? Like after 6 months or at 3.5 months or something?
3) I had these tests in africa so I don't know which generation tests they are? How reliable can they be? (The girl was not african, she was asian)
4) Can I have such symptoms by any other sexually transmitted disease?
Thanks a lot everyone for replying!
Your test will be conclusive.
Thanks a lot teak. I will get back with the results when I go for the test anytime this week.
