JC Virus DNA, PCR Questions

I understand your query. I advice you to go for private consultation as it will help me to give you better advice and suggestion, if you have any issue in booking the online consultation do let me know. The most effective treatment for hiv is antiretroviral therapy (art). This is a combination of several medicines that aims to control the amount of virus in your body. Antiretroviral medicines slow the rate at which the virus grows.

Dear lybrate-user, This test is not final. I simply indicates absence of "presence of virus" Negative results may only indicate that the person has been exposed but the infection has not yet developed. If you believe that you have been exposed you should repeat the test. Regards.

nothing to worry as in 90% cases hep b virus remains latent ... HBV DNA levels above 1 lac demand oral treatment with entacavir.... also if the liver enzymes are raised 3 times (sgot/pt).... but whether ur wife needs treatment or not can be advised on seeing her liver function tests reports....also whether she has any yellow discoloration of eyes or not etc

If you have gone through some test and found negative hiv, them you may not required further tests. If still feel like it is urgent them you might be suffering from aids phobia. The main cause of getting infected from hiv is unprotected sex. Hiv is a virus that lives in human blood, sexual fluids, and breast milk. It weakens your immune system, so your body has a hard time fighting off common germs, viruses, fungi, and other invaders. Hiv doesn't live in saliva, tears, pee, or sweat -- so it can't be spread by casual contact with these body fluids. If still in doubt, connect with me via call for right consultation.

It is not conclusive. U should have done it after 2 weeks. First share your history. Please take private consult with audio video chat and then I can guide you properly and explain you what is to be done. Also be aware of risk of other STDs.

Antigen and pcr test must show same result right.- no which virus are you talking about? Write full details and ask again.

Dear user. Thanks for the question. I can understand. HIV spread through Contact between broken skin, wounds, or mucous membranes and HIV-infected blood or blood-contaminated body fluids. Deep, open-mouth kissing if both partners have sores or bleeding gums and blood from the HIV-positive partner gets into the bloodstream of the HIV-negative partner. HIV is not spread through saliva. Take care.

HIV viral load test can not be use for new diagnosis There is one concept of Window period that means if some infective micro organism enter into our body and you test on next day your report comes negative even even micro organism present in your body. Test will come positive after overturn number of day, weeks or months onky every disease and every test have different window period hiv 1 pro viral dna QUALITATIVE test has window period of 17 days that means you have to do this test only after 17 days to get accurate result HIV DUO has 3 month window period RAPID HIV ELISA AND OTHER CARD TEST HAS 6 month window period same way HBsAg, HCV and VDRL has window period of 3 month so you have to do it after 3 month of exposure.

If PCR is negative on two occasions till 28 days, nothing to worry about HIV. But, pl. Also get tested for Hepatitis-B and Syphilis. Take Hep-B vaccine.

A positive PCR result does not prove active replication of a virus. It does not prove infectious virus is present. This is why we prefer to talk about a virus being detected in patients using PCR. Some refer to a PCR positive result as a “viral isolate” – don't. Let's discuss your concern so that we can provide the best medical plan.
