You are HIV negative. No need to do any other test for HIV including western blot. But also chk for HBsAg and VDRL tests.

You are mostly safe. But, as per the protocol take HIV HBsAg and VDRL tests after 90 days of exposure. If HBsAg is negative take HBV vaccines. For better understanding please take private consult with audio video chat and then I can guide you properly and explain you what is to be done and when.

Hello lybrate-user, the first test of HIV RNA PCR on 7th day may be too early to give conclusive results, The second test of P24 Antigen and HIV antibody test on 17th day is also early to be conclusive. HIV DUO (COMBO) TEST OF P24 ANTIGEN AND HIV 1 & 2 ANTIBODY (4TH GENERATION TEST) IS CONCLUSIVE AT THE END OF 4 TO 6 WEEKS.

PCR is the most robust test. But if qualitative is positive, you should find out in quantitative what is viral. Liad count. It is unfortunate. If your husband was on effective ART, he would have been undetectable and thus untransmittable. Please don't waste more time. Act quickly. To better understand, please take private consult with audio video chat and then I can guide you properly and explain you what is to be done.

I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you. Officially it is conclusive at 28 days post exposure. However, from current scientific data, we know that when the test is done at 20 days post exposure, it is already as good as 100% accurate. Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.

According to the national kidney foundation, normal results range from 90 to 120 ml/min/1.73 m2. Older people will have lower than normal gfr levels because gfr decreases with age. Normal value ranges may vary slightly among different laboratories. You need urology to check up to decide on the medicines.

Hello. The sensitivity of a particular test determines the lower levels of the viral load it can detect. Some test now can detect 50 copies/ml or even 20 copies/ ml of blood. Please see, as the test is done by you at 8 months after exposure shows "undetectable" you are HIV negative if this you want to know. Just for general info- a 4th gen antigen, the antibody test is the recommended test for 1st screening after a suspected exposure. Thanks.
