A member asked:
Would cured/treated primary complex at 5 years old affect hiv test result at 25 years old, 9 months after exposure? primary complex was just one-off
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Primary complex if tuberculosis (TB). Having TB currently or in the past should not alter the results of modern HIV tests. If a person is not monogamous with an HIV-negative partner, meaning she has other possible but low-risk exposures, she can get see her primary care doctor and ask about routine screening. It might be annual testing.
