Avatar m tn PCR DNA test is not a diagnostic test. You took the ELISA to early. The window period is 3 months. Most people will test positive at 6-8 weeks. You will need to take a conclusive test at 3 months post exposure. This story sounds just like another guys that was posted recently.

Avatar n tn s test but it came back negative. my questions is, how accurate is the test? ive heard you can ge false negatives. all my symptoms (peripheral neuropathy and fatigue) seem to jive with lyme's and my dog contracted it before i came down with it (dog eventually died). is it worth seeking out a specialist? do long-term antibiotics help? any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Avatar m tn ELISA is the antibody test used,its not a rapid test and takes time, how ever there are several rapid tests in the market and gives results almost in less than ten minuites, all antibody tests are very accurate, ELISA is a older version very reliable probably yours was elisa
Avatar m tn Stand alone antibody test is conclusive between 6-8 weeks, or if you dont want to wait that long, you can take duo test (antibody + p24 antigen) at 4 weeks, and it will be conclusive. If you want to go by CDC regulations, then you need to tell people that Oral Sex carries risk of HIV also. Choose a side?
Avatar n tn In many cases the clinics do not know which type of test is in use. They will just say it's an antibody test and to test outside the window period. I asked the health advisor here what type of test they used when they tested me at 28 days. She was a little taken aback I asked and said it was just a normal antibody test. It was only after I tested outside the window that I found out the test they use is a combined Antibody / P24 Antigen test.
Avatar n tn Then you've never had a risk then to contract HIV.
Avatar n tn Please tell me rapid test after 8 months from ur last risk is enough to have an 100% accurate result or how accurate are hiv rapid testing people here are talked about ELISA test but no information are available on rapid testing coz what upto my knowledge is rapid test take 15 min. to get the result and ELISA test give result in 5 days atleast i ment to say that long period result means more accurate test rather then test conducted in 15 or 20 minuts.
