i admit that it doesn't mean very much...but in my opinion...those who have tested negative should move on with their life...get off the forum. this is not a social club...a place to come and talk with your new forum friends...there are sites for that. when everyone "decides" they want to help others...you end up with a multitude of the same answers...causing new questions to be pushed to the bottom and sometimes overlooked for quite a while.
Just wanted to let you know that I received the results of my final 6 months test. It's negative. I open this new thread because I want to encourage all people who are as worried of getting tested as I were the last 6 months. In fact I was so afraid that I couldn't go for the 3 months test. I suffered for a half year and did not want to believe what all experienced people here, credible websites and doctors told me ever and ever: SYMPTOMS MEAN NOTHING!!
You had protected sex and you were never at risk for HIV. What you should do, is seek the help of a mental health professional and get to the bottom of your unwarranted worries. They say that protected sex is protected. My concern is that I never used any protection with the lady when we had oral sex - always have this nagging feeling in my head - what if there was blood or vaginal secretions involved. Would this be more of a risk.
NonReactive HIV 1/2 EIA AB Screen: Repeatedly Reactive (abnormal) HIV Antibody, HIV 1, Western Blot Interpretation: Negative. Patient Results: No Bands Detected When these results were given to me I about fell on the floor. Also, the dr that gave them to me didn't have the best way of telling me. I talked to my PCP and she said that she's never seen results like this before and I came back negative on the Western Blot which is the result that matters but...........what to do now??
They certainly do not want a moment of madness on their part to result in their loved ones becoming HIV positive too. So, what is the best HIV test? - Testing for HIV 7 days after exposure Preliminary diagnosis of very early HIV and Hepatitis C disease is now possible at 7 days post possible exposure. This time frame was previously unavailable but utilisation of standard routine technology in a novel diagnostic style will facilitate very early diagnosis.

In any case, your symptoms don't suggest HIV. In fact, almost no symptoms ever are helpful in judging new HIV infections, because the identical symptoms occur in many, many conditions, most of which are much more common than HIV, even in people at very high risk. It sounds like you have had a garden variety viral infection. And most important, the HIV blood tests are among the most accurate diagnostic tests that exist, for any medical condition.
Since I just made the cut off value on test does that mean I could still be seroconverting? Test reads HIV 1/0/2 ABS - ICMA HIV 1/0/2 ABS - INDEX VALUE <--- 1.00            INDEX VALUE: SPECIMEN REACTIVITY RELATIVE TO THE NEGATIVE CUT OFF 1.00 Could this 1.00 go up a little and I will be positive? I thought 1.0 is intermediate?

I have just tested HIV 1 & 2 in BADR Al SAMMA clinic, Ruwi, Muscat, Oman. The ELISA result is 0.31. It says, as the result is < 1, it is negative. What does this 0.31 mean? does this mean that result is going to positive in near future?

I broke out in shingles when I was 24 and tested for HIV/AIDS but the test was negative and have been tested a few times since then and still negative. I also shake constantly.

I recently was engaged in safe sex with a CSW but condom broke and washed off immediately. I tested after 7 weeks with ELFA combo kit and the results were HIV NEGATIVE (0.39), what does it mean?
