And i took hiv antibody test on 21st november. (90+days after exposure). Result came non reactive. Is this conclusive? Pls tell. I m anxious.

Hi,
Though low dose steroid may have some effect on the antibodies against HIV, still, the effect on the result is minimal and you may take this result on 90 day as conclusive.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
