Q and A

Question

3 negative HIV tests, do I have HIV?

Hi

I had unprotected oral sex both ways about 11 weeks ago. Since then I’ve had 3 HIV tests, one HIV DUO test at 5 weeks, one at 7 weeks and one at 9 weeks, not to sure what type of test they use. I’m still worried though as I’ve been off colour for the last 6 weeks with swollen glands and very itchy skin, a slight rash on my chest and headaches. Am I being stupid?

Many thanks

Answer

Thank you for your question.

I wouldn’t say you were being stupid but maybe a little paranoid! 3 negative HIV tests mean you do not have HIV. If you are not feeling well you should go to your doctor and find out why. It is not because of HIV.
