A member asked:
If you suspect contracting hiv and hcv at the same time are tests reliable? for example does hcv delay hiv seroconversion or doess hiv delay hcv seroconversion?..i read case reports from early 2000s about such prolonged seroconversions
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Don’t worry: Please don’t worry about serial conversions. Just check yourself for both now and in six weeks. You’ll be fine. I feel it in my heart.
