 Hi there: You must wait 12 weeks for a conclusive result. Since most people show up positive by 28 days, I would feel confident in an 11 week test. Even with the cold sore, oral sex is still a low-risk activity and I do not think this situation warranted testing. Bottom line: Yes, you can move on. In health, Richard | ||||||||
