A member asked:
How long after possible hiv exposure can i get a definitive test result from a home oraquick hiv test?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
NEVER definitive: There are several percent false negatives on home oraquick. Alex, you can't go on worrying like this -- it'll slow you down emotionally and interfere with your work and just being happy. Get with your primary care physician and pay for a nucleic acid test now. It's better to know, no matter what the result. Be brave, cherish the memory of love, and move on with your life.
