"Start living!": You HAVE been worried about getting infected with HIV...10 tests! Most experts have dropped the recommendation to undergo a final HIV test (following an isolated exposure) at 6 months, especially with the newer generation HIV antibody tests. I agree with this recommendation. I think you can start to live again....but you've obviously learned something important! Best wishes.
