Response from Mr. Molaghan
 Hello The ELISA test is a blood test specifically used to screen for HIV disease. ELISA stands for Enzyme Linked Immuno Sorbent Assay. This test is not routinely ordered unless there is a suspicion of HIV disease. If you are not feeling well and are at risk for HIV, it might be a good idea to have this checked. |
