Hello XXXXXXX

Welcome and thanks for posting your query to the forum.

I can understand all your concern and have interpreted each and every point with best clinical acumen.

After analyzing all the points Let me reassure you that you are totally alright. It is on the basis of my medical knowledge as well as the clinical knowledge that I am reassuring you fully for your clear status.

Let me guide you certain points regarding HIV:

In an unprotected intercourse with a HIV positive person the HIV viruses gets entered into the body and divides in innumerous numbers(millions of viruses per ml).

After a period of 2-6 week there is mounting of antibodies against the viruses. These antibodies can take at the maximum of 8-10 weeks of the period to get expressed.

There fore the infection can be analyzed by two ways -

A): By HIV virus detection: done by RNA- PCR. It tells us the number of copies of virus present in per ml of blood. By the latest of methods the viruses can be detected within 2 weeks of period.

B): By HIV antibody Detection: As told earlier once the antibodies appear maximum of 8-10 weeks then these antibodies to HIV virus persist throughout life. The protocol of the antibody tests done for HIV is as follows: One HIV antibody test at 6-8 weeks and then a follow up final test at 3 months (84 days or 12 weeks).

Antibodies once formed to HIV can never disappear. So if a person has HIV infection, 3 months of period is the time when we say to be fully sure of whether HIV is present or not.

Now correlating all the facts and interpreting with your situation you can get that all your tests are don beyond the set limit of time which we can get as PCR done after 2 weeks and antibody test done after 3 months.

So no further tests are requires and you are totally free from HIV.

I hope these informations will relax your mind. I will be glad to answer any further queries.

Hello young fellow,

Welcome again to the forum and thanks for your further follow up.

I have given all my statements on the basis of thorough interpretation of both your reports and then correlating these with your exposure time.

I already reassured you for your negative status and again reassure you that in all the above situations your status is negative.

Your resorts are totally correct and are done at right time. To tell you more elaborately:

Your vaginal intercourse was 6 months back. The reports are done in August and then September. The DNA PCR report was done in August2014. It is enough of time for the same to declare the exact status of a person.

A DNA PCR after 21 days is most accurate. In your case it was done aroung more than 21 days so giving you accurate result.

Further the report of September 2014 for antibody test makes everything clear.

Any operation done 6 months prior to the exposure would not at all affect the test results. It has nothing to do with the test results, so just totally relax about the same.

Cutting something in your friends kitchen with slight cut is also not at all of any risk for HIV. So this is also not at all of any risk for HIV.

I reassure you fully that you are totally clear and you do not have HIV.

I hope these informations will relax your mind. I will be glad to answer any further queries.

With regards,
