Dear doctor Somewhere I have read a CD4 count can tell whether a person is Hiv infected or not. I went for CD4 count before a Hiv test. My CD4 count came low 390 (Normal from 430). The needle which was pushed was not new. The same day after giving blood I was in fever for 2 weeks followed by joint muscle pain. Headache stomach everything was there. I tested at 35 days after needle exposure by immunochromotography rapid test it was negative. At 87 days I did Rna Pcr for Hiv 1 it was non detectable. At 102 days tested by 4th generation (Mini vidas) result is antibody 0.06 and antigen not detected (positive greater than 0.25). At 144 and 180 days I tested negative by rapid immunochromotography test. Could there any chance left for Hiv 1&2? At present I have oral leukoplakia and red ring type patches in mouth. Pain in lower armpit and groin area and sometimes any part of my body shivers (2 - 3 times daily). Can you Sir help me what is going on in my body. Also tested negative for Hep B and C at 180 days. What test I further require to diagnose my problem? Whether all the above is causing for Hiv. Kindly help Sir.
