I found out about my poz status from a buccal swab. That means they swabbed my cheek and could tell me I had it. There is a big push for evidence-based medicine going on, so I highly doubt that many marketers would allow a test out there that was wholly unreliable.
That said, I don't know what particular test you're concerned about. If there's any question, I'd say go in for a blood test. If you're worried about people finding out, go in to one of those testing places that will let you test under the name, "Mickey Mouse."
I haven't heard about other blood draws making HIV tests unreliable, though.
