Hi, till July 2010 i had relationship with a partner for 5 yrs. After finding that he was unfaithful to me, we broke up by end of July 2010. I suspect he would have been sexually active with many partners. So i underwent ELISA test in April 2011 (Approx 8 months after our break up). The result was negative. Do i have to test again? What are the chances of me getting infected? Im deeply worried.
Usually one need's to be tested every 3 month's, and after the 3rd negative result your good to go. HIV take's a while to show up and that is the reason for the mulitple testing. Did you ask your medical professional what he/she thought? I had a series of test's a long time ago and was told after the first negative result to come back in 3 month's, i did and it was still negative, 3 month's after that the same thing. Were you also tested for other STD's such as syphlis and gonoreah? These type's of disease's can lay quietly in your body for some time.
