A member asked:
Has anyone ever tested negative for hiv after 12 months and then on another test, tested positive?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not expected: It would be highly unusual provided the initial test was accurate (the lab did the test correctly and did not get the sample mixed up with another person's). Of course, this will also presume that you have had no further contact with HIV source in the interim.
