HIV test window period survey?

I would like to ask all of you. Have anyone of you knows of anyone or ever experienced yourself of testing NEGATIVE for hiv antibody after 6 WEEKS of exposure, then amazingly became POSITIVE when u took the test again after 8 WEEKS onwards??... I know about the 3-6months rule but just for the sake of curiousity that has it ever happened before..

It is unlikely that you tested negative after 6 weeks, and become positive after 8 weeks onwards.
what i suggest you is to go for P.C.R. test, that will clear all your dobuts.
be in constant tiuch with your physician.
take care.
