Hi,
Thanks for your query.

HIV Tridot or spot test may likely to become positive if one got infected, after 6-8 weeks. For you if it is positive after 42 days after exposure we have to take it as positive only. We have confirm the result as false positive and technical errors have to be ruled out. You can undergo another ELISA test or Western Blot test to confirm the same.

There good counselling centers and treatment modalities are available everywhere in India and elsewhere. You can approach these centers and if you cal follow their advice you can lead a comfortable and healthy life .
Good luck to you.
