 Hi 21-year-old Philippines-Guy, Yes, I would consider your three-month negative ELISA definitive. Your absent spleen would not affect the accuracy of your HIV test or time it would take your immune system to develop anti-HIV antibodies, which would be manifested by a positive HIV antibody test. WOO-HOO! Stay well. Dr. Bob | ||||||||
