Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
First : PCR test on 10th day after contact(The one that gives you answer in couple of days). Second : Rapid Anti HIV 1/2 test after 3 months. Third : Rapid test after approximately 8 months.
All results were negative. Reason behind my third test was that I found 5-6 molluscums on my arm. I got scared and got tested couple days after I saw it. Don't know when it appeared but as soon as I saw it, waited couple of days and got tested with rapid test. Result was negative. I may also have gotten molluscums from my wrestling training but still, I'm anxious.
Did I get tested right? Was 3rd test in reasonable time(Do rapid tests work after 6 months is passed)? Some people told me that first two were enough to say I was negative but I'm still anxious. I had doctor remove my molluscums.
