What Does Non Reactive Result Mean In VDRL And HIV Tests?
Sir a week ago one morning I found terrible itching on my inner side of my penis after 4 days the area was surrounded by red patches with slight burn and a fluid surrounded it all the time.Then I went to an urologist and that doctor reffered me to dermatologist He reffered the vdrl test along with HIV 1 and HIV 2.In both reports it is remarked as non reactive.Now my question to you what does the word non reactive mean?After the remark in the report am I safe of HIV or any sexually transmitted disease?Please help me.
