Hi I am a college student. Two weeks ago I took a rapid Oraquick test for HIV 1/2 and they came back negative. Six weeks prior to that I had sex with a condum. Before that I had sex in January with a condom aswell. I am nervous out of my mind. The blood was sent for a follow up test and I get my results on Monday. The last time I kind of had unprotected sex was more than a year ago and the gentleman told me he had no type of disease. Can you tell me if I'm negative or not? Would the Oraquick have tested positive if I had HIV for more than a year? How accurate are my results and is there a chance I might have HIV?
