I am HIV negative.

[betplom]

Just had an HIV test done. I get checked at least once a year.
My HIV test today was negative.

This is good news. I have been with some skanks.

[KingRevolver]

Are you positive?

[Fishhead]

Originally tested positive, but it was a mistake.

That or my fish oil cured it.

Dull post.

window period is 1.5 months. negative means nothing during that time.

I'll make sure to tell this to the public health nurses and doctors at the hassle free clinic next time I visit, they probably will thank me for providing this excellent information, they probably had no idea.

I won't take the credit though Pico, I'll tell them the source of this new found information was you, not me.

[sickler]

Pico, what's your credentials?

Work in the field or just a frequent visitor of sexual health clinics?

[pico]

this is just common knowledge. unless you do the expensive tests, which shorted the window period.

HIV "rapid" test

http://www.hasslefreeclinic.org/HIVTestUpdate.php

A short history of rapid HIV testing

The first rapid HIV test for use outside laboratory settings was approved by Health Canada in 2000, and was used by Hassle Free Clinic for six months ending in April 2002.

However, some researchers found that the test being used at that time may have given some false negative results. There was no question about the accuracy of positive tests, which were all confirmed by further lab testing.

Health Canada recalled the test, and efforts were made to inform any individual who had tested negative on this test to seek repeat testing to be sure of his or her HIV status.

A new rapid test (manufactured by a different company) has now been approved by Health Canada after extensive clinical trials.

Health Canada has assured us that this test is accurate.

What about the other result? You don't want to tell everyone you were tested and you are now officially TWAT positive?

[tacomax]

I've never heard of that type of cancer. Is that a new type of cancer?

Postate cancer is relativly new, however seems to be spreading quickly,seems to be more prevelant at EOG and other forums,but has made its way here.
