Hiv tested - combo ag/ab 4th generation test - negative (0.17) after 6-8 weeks from last contact. is it reliable? i have candida in mouth!

Nucleic acid test: It is good that the test results are negative. To be sure, you should get a HIV nucleic acid test at 6 months after exposure. The candida in the mouth is likely co-incidental.
