Dear members, sorry for my bad English. I have had a sex with a CSW almost three months ago. I went get tested for several times due to my anxiety.

  1. PCR RNA/DNA (Cepheid) qualitative at 23 days
  2. A rapid blood test (Alere determine) and and an antigen test separately at 58 days
  3. A duo ELISA test (chinese made wantai) at 68 days respectively, all came back negative.

    My symptoms are

  4. Weakness and dizziness particularly afternoon
  5. Sweating
  6. Irritability
  7. Tingling around lip
  8. On and off throat pain

    Should I go for further test?

    if all tests came back negative then you do not have HiV. and the symptoms are caused by something else

      i understand that. but you need to trust the results. hiv symptoms are so generic for most things. and youll spend your life constantly worrying. making yourself unwell with the anxiety.
