A member asked:
Is a negative hepatitis c antibody test conclusive after 12 weeks from potential exposure?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
I think so: Nobody really knows the rate for late conversions as one never really knows what people are doing that might be risky after the reported exposure is done. If you've having obsessive thoughts about having hepatitis C and a nucleic acid test would reassure you, and you can afford it, then go for it. Best wishes.
