Negative ELISA but high percentage Jan 29, 2011 Hi dr. I just received my ELISA lab results today and they were NEGATIVE. However, the result was 0.96. Taking into account, that below 0.99 is NEGATIVE and above 1.0 is POSITIVE. Should I be worried about the results were close to the limit? Or should I stay calm since they were NEGATIVE anyway? Thanks for your time and for answering question to all of us. |

 Hi, Should you worry or stay calm? I'd advise you stay calm! When it comes to this type of testing, negative is negative. You can't be just a little bit HIV infected anymore than you can be a just a little bit pregnant. Relax Max. You're negative. Dr. Bob | ||||||||
