This is regarding hiv testing this is my history of test and please give me feedback i need it?


i took the pcr dna test after 27 days of unprotected sex it was negative with labcorp.
i took another pcr dna test with quest and it was 45 days after and that was negative,

i tested negative for hiv 8,9,10 weeks.

my 11 week test was positive and the western blot was indeterminate/inconclusive,

can anybody tells me what this mean please

I thought the most accurate time to test was 3 months after exposure. I suggest waiting and getting another test at 3 months, 6 months and yearly.
In the meantime I would practice safe sex and inform your partner(s) you might be HIV positive.
The link below might help answer some of your questions.

Calm down.....you already asked this question. I think that your are getting paranoid.

As I said before...
testing for HIV requires screening by means of ELISA. If an HIV test is positive by ELISA, this will be subjected to WESTERN BLOT (which is the confirmatory test). The test for both ELISA and WESTERN BLOT is interpreted as reactive (which means positive ) or non-reactive (which meand negative). If the test is either negative or positive, it is interpreted as undetermined. This test is an antibody test.

If you have HIV RNA PCR done and it is negative...then you are HIV negative. This is an antigen test. It specifically looks for the RNA of the HIV virus in the blood.

To appease your mind.....there are some cases where the ELISA and Western Blot are interpreted as undetermined. There is actually a study done on this....and they found out that the majority of patients with undetermined results are actually negative. So there!
