Hi Anxiousgirl22. I understand that this has been an extremely stressful time for you however you are doing the correct thing by testing for HIV. A negative result cannot be relied on until 12 weeks after possible exposure with BioSure's HIV Self Test. You are correct in thinking that if these symptoms were related to HIV then you would have received a positive test result. I would recommend going to a sexual health clinic as their test can detect the virus sooner as well as test you for other STIs. Thank you for choosing BioSure and I hope this has helped put your mind at rest. Kindest regards Francesca Bard, BioSure (UK) Ltd
