Hey, i want to know that if someone has had alot of stress, is it possible to weaken your immune systeme and take longer to appear positive? Let's say someone with good health normaly should test earlier than someone with helth probllem, can stress fakes your hiv test in the 3 month window period / let's say at 4 weeks, more than 90%should test positive (elisa antibody standard test) according to EWH and HHH, can stress afect your immune systeme and give you a false negative?
78 day ELISA which means more than 8 weeks, your test is totally conclusive, ELISA is the most sensitive test as per experts and it cant go wrong, i dont understand what do you mean by "the test was done in India so i cant trust" all tests done across have standard procedures with standard accuracy rates, all you need to do is go see a counsellor and calm down. your guilt is haunting you and nothing more than that. you are in a bad habit doubt cycle.
my doctor is said to me to give pcr-rt (quantitative) test? what is pcr? I am very worried.
There is a lot of new tests but elisa is just the type of test, there are 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th generation of elisas, and there continue to be a lot of research for new tests, the newest teste tend to be rapid test accurate as elsia tests, there has been also improvement also in the NAAT tests, and some labs are trying to come up with a new 5th generation rapid test (PCR+Antibody+p24) but is not ready yet.
My husband had positive elisa test with 3.45 value in august 2016 for hepatitis c. Then he got treatment aND it showed 0.85 value in January 2017. He got checked his hepatitis C by elisa test again two days back. It showed a value of 85.0. He's active n doing job. No cough or any other symptoms. He did it as just a routine checkup. Please guide if elisa test can be 85.0 ?? What should we do next? Much worried! !
Dear Doc (and forum readers),
About a week or so ago I needed to get a medical check for work. When I got my results back, I was shocked to be told that the Elisa test came back as HIV reactive at 1.52. They tested it twice. I really have no idea what that number stands for, though.
I don't have sex. No girlfriend. And I don't sleep with street workers. As far as I can remember, I have not come into contact with blood (except when killing mosquitoes).
hello, i had protected sex with an hiv positive girl (i just discovered), i had sex with her twice, but she gave me several oral sex, i saw some blood on my penis in one of them, from her mouth i think.. i have no symptoms untill now, i did Elisa test 52 days after 1st time and 20 days after last time and today it´s been 2 months since 1st time (the day i saw the blood) and 1 month after our last time.
