Does The Elisa Test Result Indicate HIV Positive Result?
hi i go test like two years ago they said i have HIV but i have never had any symptoms then two days ago i went back again and i was tested using THE ELISA method and it had one line on one side of control and the disease side was blank does that mean am still positive?
A single ELISA is not conclusive and hence not recommended. Who had said you were HIV positive 2 years ago? How many tests were conducted ? Had you given consent ? Were you counselled ?I guess none of these happened and that is why you are so confused. My advise , don't go into the business of interpretation of report, leave it to the specialists..I advise you to visit an ICTC (Integrated Counselling and Testing Centre where they will counsel you , take your consent and get your blood retested as per the protocol of the country. This way you will receive correct and scientific information about the disease which will allay your misconceptions and fears,

Does The Elisa Test Result Indicate HIV Positive Result?
hiiii ELISA is more sensitive method for diagnoses of HIV if u don t have any symptoms that doesn t mean that u r not infected HIV has very slow progression so in initial years you might not have any symptoms but with medicines it can be delayed so consult doctors and start medicines live long thank u
