: The RNA test almost certainly is falsely positive; you do not have HIV. But you should discuss it with the doctor or clinic where these tests were ordered. If you have been testing on your own through a laboratory, without a doctor or clinic's advice, stop further testing and see a doctor in person. Good luck.
