I had a risky heterosexual exposure 5 years ago
I had a risky heterosexual exposure 5 years ago. I cannot remember if I had symptoms then, but I have some now (sore throat, oral thrush, some night sweats) which all point to HIV. I have taken 2 bio sure tests post exposure, both negative, but is it advisable to take another test with different manufacture or with 4th gen? Will this be more accurate? Is it possible that the finger prick blood was not enough to pick up antibodies?
Sorry, just heard that self test is not that reliable compared to 4th gen. Is this true for chronic infections? Or can 2 biosure tests be reliable?
Sorry for all the questions, but I’m worried as hell.
