testing

so i have a question about hiv testing...
is it common practice for the labs to do one certain test for hiv...my questionable exposure was 6 months ago and i tested negative at 6 months...my question basically asks...do ALL hiv tests now detect within a 6 month period? should i be freakin out still? i have a very healthy immune system since i do lift weights and exercise on a daily basis and im worried that i may have tested negative because of that fact...someone also told me that it could take 7 years because of it laying dormant which i dont believe...your responses are greatly appreciated
