Please help me Dr. H. Hunter or Dr. Edward I had a girlfriend who test right before had me. She made a 4th generation exam as routine because she only had a boyfriend for about 3 years who tested to donate blood (negative too). After that she only had me about 5 months after. On the week of 14 February we had an unprotected relation. At 11 weeks i've made 4th generation with p24 ant search negative. At 12 weeks rapid test negative. At 13 weeks rapid test negative. At 14 weeks another 4th generation exam and rapid test negative. I've to say that she made at 13 weeks as i begged her a rapid test (came negative). Should i be worried or anxious about?? Do i need further testing? The possibility of turning positive is real?

Welcome to the Forum. I will be pleased to confirm what you have already been told both on the International Expert Forum by Dr. Cummings and on the HIV Prevention Community site- you can be completely confident that you do not have HIV and do not need further testing. 4th generation tests are conclusive any time more than 4 weeks after and exposure and Rapid tests for HIV antibody are conclusive 8 weeks after exposure. Thus you have definitive proof from several tests that you do not have HIV and should not worry further. There is no further need for concern and no need for more testing.
