HIV) The CDC states that the 4th Antigen and antibody test window period is 18-45 days and the NAT PCR test to be 14 - 33 days. If these tests are taken after the window periods, are they conclusive ? I am confused because some Doctors say 12 weeks?
Elisa p24 antigen 1.56(s/co) positive, antibody negative@25 days after exposure. RNA PCR TND(Target not detected) @25days. Elisa p24 Ag 0.92(s/co) (gray zone)@27 days. Roche ECLIA Hiv Ag/Ab combo test negative @30 and 35 days. Am I infected or not?
