I tested negative using HIV type 2 self-test

i tested hiv negative using hiv type 2 self test 2 weeks after exposure, at 4 weeks i tested negative using the same type test, in week 7 i tested negative again. However my worry is that im experience general body malaise, abdominal discomfort, weight loss and experiencing some white patches in mouth since 3 days after exposure so im worrying im contracted the virus

Hi father, Apologies for not getting back to you sooner. This post notification must have slipped through my email inbox. By the sounds of it, it was not a BioSURE HIV self test that you used but correct me if I'm wrong. Depending on the window period of the type of test used, your results may have been conclusive. I would recommend getting in touch with the supplier of the test that you had to find out more about the reliability and whether your results are conclusive. It may be that you need to retest at a later date to know your status for sure. I hope this helps, if you have any other questions please feel free to leave them below and I will answer them as soon as possible. Have a nice day! Kindest regards, Becky
