 Hi The guidelines for HIV testing are to be initially tested at 3 weeks then again at 3 months, if both of these tests are negative then so are you, as long as there were no other types of exposure during that 3 month period, if so then the timing starts over again. HIV is negative, the others you will want to continue following up with your health care provider. I'm not sure of the testing procedure for the other tests. But you are HIV free. Be well and stay safe, Shannon | ||||||||
