From what was told to me on this forum, a test taken after 8 weeks doesn't change at 12 weeks but the guidelines suggest confirming at 12 weeks.

"tested At 10 weeks took a duo test which was negative."

You had a duo test? A blood test that looks for antibodies and p24 antigen?
These are considered conclusive anytime after 4 weeks.
Even any blood test at 10 weeks is so near conclusive.

"At the 15 week mark i got so stress after reading that tests are not conclusive At 13 week "

What test? Who says this?
CDC and "WHO" says 12 weeks is conclusive. Blood being a tad more sensitive that oralquick. Try and relax, your test results are very encouraging and possibly conclusive with a 4th generation test which is also called a duo test.
