25 September 2023. Related: All topics, HIV testing.
I tested positive and after a year I got pregnant and I was tested negative for the first trimester. Later I was tested again positive, how truthful is the test results?
Answer
HI, how are you doing.
Congratulations on your pregnancy.
Where did you do this test? Was this at home or a clinic? After the first test was it confirmed with a blood test?
And when you tested positive the first time did you start treatment?
Have you had any testing for your viral load/CD4 count?

Approximately 7 weeks after I’ve had a heterosexual sex with a woman I met through a friend.
I went into to my local hospital and do a HIV COMBO rapid test using Determine HIV-1/2 Ag/Ab Combo by Abbott.
And the results were:
The Control line did appear.
5 minutes later
A “colorless line” emerges from the observation windows of Ag and Ab.
The line is neither red nor pink.
If you look closer, it looks like two grooves.
Is this indicating result negative or positive?
