Thanks for the lift, thank you.
The DUO test at 21 days is very reliable anyway the only conclusive test is at 3 motnhs.
Thanks for the prompt reply..
Again,you mean to say that that the Duo test is not that reliable
at 21 days?
Your test at 51 days is 95% accurate to get a conclusive test you`ll need to test again at 3 months.
Goood Luck
I tested negative for about 21 days exposure by VIDAS HIV DUO QUICK and Immunochromatographie test, retested again at 51 days by VIDAS EIA all came up negative,,,is it conclusive?
weird, your last post dissapeared.
Quit asking the same stuff over and over then when you have beyond a doubt negative results. 14 week tests are conclusive, if you cant accept that you dont have HIV then go get counseling.
Sorry to be a d ick a little bit but your obsseviness with having HIV is really sad. You need the help of a therapist and counseling.
Youre never gonna stop are you?
Hey did anyone hear about the new HIV strain in the North Pole that cant be detected except on the thrid thursday of the month?
qoestion for teak have you ever seen a 15 week negative turn positive later? and is there such thing as undetectable strains of hiv in vietnam?
agreed...seek the help of a mental health professional
You should go seek counseling really. These kind of health phobias are really hard to get over. Go get some counseling and you will probably get over it.
Good luck.
i dont know why this situation was so tramatic that everytime i go back to my exposure my symptoms my fiances symptoms it freaks me out and i start thinking i am infected again i tested neg all the way out to 15 weeks but am still not convinced does anyone have any advice or ideas of how to cope with this
If you have NSU it's because they've gone through the algorithm to determine it's cause
1 it's non gonococcal (not gonoreah bacteria)
2 it's not the main cause of NSU Chlamydia.
So that means it's non specific, I'd only be speculating on the souce of the bacteria or fungus possibly from your girl's hands or your own) and I don't have the swabs, agar plate, stain ...I can't diagnose over the nternet or at all because I'm not a Doctor. I can only give pointers
Also it's not an HIV issue so not for this forum.
teak alien frank anyone??????
i have one last dumb question ok so i tested neg at 15 weeks i take that as conclusive now i may of had an exposure a month ago when i went to get a massage the girl gave me a happy ending also (a handjob) a fews days after that it kind of burned when i urinated and i went for a check up they did the swab and diagnosed me with ngu all tests for chylmidia gonnerea and stds were neg so with that said if she toucched her vagina and gave me a handjob rite after does that put me at risk for hiv?
It is clear enough.3 months UNLESS a clinician determines otherwise. You would know they would tell you.
so 3 months not 6 rite????
As it has been said several hundred time on this forum 3 months is conclusive.
That was addressed to coz, in relation to lostone-8's question - the ONLY question that should be discussed in his thread. If coz takes it that I'm referring to his situation in this thread then he shouldn't have thread jumped
Anyway I PMed coz advice particular to his situation to keep it out this thread..
What I wrote is the general advice given by the health protection agencies which is the advice on window periods that SHOULD be given because it's based on hard science,, epidemiological studies and fact, not on repeating what others have written on medhelp..
The minimum window period continues to be 3 months but experienced clinicians will determine if further testing is required after that based on the risks and thir clinical assessment of the patient.
Back to the original poster's question.
i AGREE lizzie
now for those famous words
MOVE ON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! OOPSSSSSSSSSS
some ppl just HAVE to always cast doubt on the forum...why? i dont know.
you are as negative as negative can get. there is NO NEED for further testing :)
Yes coz120, as alienshadow says 'nothing is 100%' and certainly not in any area of science or technology. What I can say with certainty is that an experienced clinician would be able to advise if follow up testing is required.
