Question about HIV test Result?

Hello

I did an HIV test today and the result came back negative. I am very worried though because the S/Co value came as 0.66. Usually, any value below 1 is considered negative. But this value is pretty high and it is close to 1. I did the test a couple of times before and the result was always 0.29 or 0.35. I am worried that this high result means that I am seroconverting. Could it be ???

i wouldnt let it worry me so much. every person has the Herpes virus in their body when there born. Thats the reason we get cold sores and fever blisters. these are infections similar to chickenpox which is caused by another member of the alpha-Herpesviridae subfamily. (3 diff. herpes viruses) Herpes is a STD, like an HIV, a sexual disease. The .66 is probably the little herpes simplx virus that we automatically carry. sorry if its worryin u. things affect us according to how we interpret them and act.

No, it is below one and you should be okay. Use protection.
