Rapid tests are screening tests and can give false positive results.hence further tests are done .you can get back with details of exposure details, intercourse history, partner history, time since exposure, etc .
As the eclia, cmia and western blot tests are repeatedly negative you can allay fears of HIV.you are negative for hiv.
You can get back for any clarification
