Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for posting your question.
You have mentioned that you have undergone CMIA 4th generation testing at many times and all have been negative, and once it was reported as non-reactive (which also means, negative).
In this case, you can be sure that you are not suffering from HIV, CMIA is a very sensitive and specific test. So relax, you don't need any more tests.
Hope this answers your question. If you have any doubts, then please write back to me.
Wishing you good health.
Regards,
