Dear Sir I am trying to upload the reports but it is not getting attached some how. Sir I want your help in understanding following things:
1- how much reliable is CMIA Antibody (Dr Lal Path Labs) test at 174th and 181st day of possible exposure which was .14 and .08 on index respectively.
2- while it was a combo test with P 24 antigen so why there was interpretation that Antobodies not not detected in sample and there was no ref of p24 antigen.
3- Can I resume my routine sexual life with wife without protection as I have only done only one protected sexual intrecourse with wife since this incidence.
4- I am little worried about that very very faint line of rapid card test but had Two CMIA negative after that.
Your words will help me in better routine life.
