Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.
I have gone carefully through your query and understand your concerns. Let me assure you that for transmission of HIV you need to have transmission of body fluids. That did not happen and so you are safe. You need not test further. Coming to your questions:
1. The 16th day test is confirmatory. However, testing after 120 days will clear you off all your worries (even thought there is not the slightest chance of it giving HIV positive results).
2. May indicate acute infection or reactivation. Further testing and clinical correlation recommended.
3. Testing after 21 days meaningless.
4. Not a chance.
Let me know if I could help further.
Regards


1.I have heard that hiv combo test should be done after 4 weeks or 6weeks to be conclusive? How correct is that? Should i get it done then as well?
2. What medicine and for how long should i take for chlamydia.. In how many days it gets treayed?
3. Is there a chance that hiv virus could have accessed my blood stream from the small tear i had around my nail.. It was not bleeding profusely, but had a little bit blood
4. Thougj you have denied it but i am still worried that If i have contracted chlamydia, i ciuld have caught hiv as well from the fluids.
5. Attached is the report i got after 16 days. Is this a bit different from 4th generation test?
Very worried.
Get retested 120 days from exposure. Stop worrying if still negative.
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for writing back.
1. As I have mentioned, testing after 120 days or 4 months is best. Negative results would be conclusive.
2. If you have chlamydia, your doctor will prescribe oral antibiotics, usually azithromycin or doxycycline. A 7-day course of antibiotics should be given for treatment.
3. Not unless you had an actively bleeding sore.
4. Repeat test 120 days from exposure.
5. The technicalities do not matter.
Brief Answer:
Not concerning
Detailed Answer:
The small cut is unlikely to be a cause for concern.
I would not consider it to be threatening.
