Liver Function Test: High Albumin & Total protein level early sign of HIV/ARS

First of all I do understand, these blood results doesn't mean anything to hiv symptoms/Ars. However, some websites says high level of protein in the blood can be sign of chronic infection/Hiv.

Because, I'm going through severe stress nowadays due to hiv fear so ended up with meeting new infectious specialist, he only ordered these tests when raised a concern over symptoms because we cannot always correct which is correct or wrong from the doctors since they know their field and experience.

He told me to take hiv RNA test after 3 months from exposure not for conclusive and to know base status about hiv though I already took 2 duo test at 4th & 8th week gap which are negative.

Points to consider from CBC: High lymphocytes(nearly border, -5 less than high limit) & High proteins in the blood.

Anyone have any idea about this case?, as we always argue with statement written in the internet which documented a decade ago. Why don't we think practically correlate with these test results since some people sero convert after 3~6 months.

If these blood results are not related to hiv then is it coincidence with peak after exposure??

What an irony! You just answered your own question,

I am going to copy and paste your own response.

*We expose to hiv when we have sex without condom /unprotected sex and needle etc*

Therefore, you had no risk. You needed none of the above tests and your inability to believe in the result of those tests clearly indicate that you need a therapist to help you with your anxiety.

This is an HIV prevention forum and your issues are irrelevant to our forum, we strongly advise you to see a therapist for addressing your concern.

Yes, it looks may irony. But fact is there were no recent studies to understand on how virus behaves and mutates and capability to infect via saliva , sweats etc.

If there was reason my specialist would asked me take RNA test after 3 months? for base status as she said am still window period.

I'm seen here , most of people complaining about ear ringing as main symptom after exposure is not a coincidence? I do have experiencing this now..
Wait a minute! You just went too far with this, instead of analysing the virology keep your focus limited to the exposure, which is NONE.
The idea of masseur doing 'something' is irrational. We can't help you with that, you have to see a therapist for it. This forum is specific to HIV prevention only and you don't have a concern that belong here.

I'm not sure if am understand your question.

We expose to hiv when we have sex without condom /unprotected sex and needle etc
What was your exposure? Did you have unprotected vaginal or anal sex? Or did you share needle with other people to inject drugs?
No I didn't have intercourse but I strongly believe was infected by massage therapist during massage session. She must be did something on my back where n non of back acne is present.
Post that only, Im not feeling good till today.
