I had a blood test done that included HIV. It was for employment (I live in south korea) and a couple days later I was asked to come back and another one. This same thing happened last year but I was given no explanation, I passed my entire physical. This year the same thing happened only I was told to do a consultation with the onsite doctor before retaking the test. He said I had tested positive for HIV antibodies and so they needed to do a second test. I do not know how else to say this - it is completely impossible that I have HIV. I have never had a transfusion, I have one sexual partner who I know with 100% certainty also has no other sexual partners. Further more, I actually had to do two tests within a week of each other (one for my school and another for the department of education) and only the second one came back with this positive result. This has to be a false positive unless there is some magical way a person with only one HIV free partner, drug free, who has never had a blood transfusion and wasn't born with it can possibly get this virus. I have tried to look into what causes false tests but I see no evidence I have any of the other issues listed. My guess right now is the test was read badly, otherwise contaminated, or was part of some kind of batch testing. I would like a doctor to tell me how I could have gotten this result, and how likely it is my second test will also come back positive and if so what actions should I take? I just can not even remotely fathom in my wildest dreams any way that I could be HIV positive. I'd end up in a medical journal it would be so impossible.
