I had a possible exposure to hiv in Jan. Unprotected sex with a male. I have a question, I started developing symptoms about a month ago today. I tested two weeks into symptoms which was 4.5 months after exposure and I test at almost 5 months exactly and both were negative using 4 th gen testing. I also have been donating plasma every week since that date. Twice a week actually. I know they screen every plasma donation using a NAT test via pooling. Am I correct is thinking I'm am hiv free or should I be waiting for the 6 th month test and hope it is free and clear? I also have had a CBC done at my doctors office to narrow down why I have these symptoms.

    Hi Amanda,

    Hope you are feeling better. Just wanted to say that this is not HIV if you have tested negative. have a look in google with " unknown std china "  seems similar problems with many people including us.
