Do I need more HIV tests post exposure?

Hi, I did Antibody hiv 1& 2 Elisa test after 30 days of exposure. Then once again I did Insti antibody 1&2 screening tes after 45 days. In both test my result was negative. Should I do further test for my assurance...please kindly suggest me

1 Answer

Answered on 7th June '24

The tests you took at 30 and 45 days are generally accurate, but for complete peace of mind, it's best to get tested again 3 months after being exposed. This is because it takes time for the immune system to make enough antibodies that can be detected by the test. In the meantime, if you start feeling unwell with symptoms such as fever, rash, sore throat or tiredness, please tell your doctor.

My uric acid test report 5.9 please tell me ok not ok

Male | 29

The uric acid level of 5.9 is already above normal. It might remain asymptomatic at first, yet if untreated, it may lead to gout, which is characterized by pain and swelling in the joints. Your uric acid level can be decreased by drinking more water, avoiding alcohol, and less red meat and seafood. Besides this method, exercising regularly may also be beneficial.

Underlying issues like ane­mia or blood clotting problems could exist. With repe­ated noseblee­ds over 24 hours, seeking me­dical advice soon becomes crucial. Your doctor can evaluate­ properly.

Iam 25 years old male I have a simple blood clot in my chest .due to an boat accident The ct scan explain that no risk in my thorax . I want a suggestion for my prescription they wrote

Male | Kanimuthu

It's a relief to know that the CT scan of your chest shows no remarkable risk. Blood clots can root from different causes like immobility, injury, or some illnesses. A few of the frequently occurring symptoms can include chest pain or dyspnea; however, thanks to your statement, there is no such risk, which undoubtedly comes as a piece of good news. I suggest that you strictly follow the instructions of your doctor, do the exercises recommended to you in your physical therapy, and you may also apply proper hydration. Do not forget to always consult your physician if you have any issues.

One of the ways that you can increase your blood levels is by taking a syrup called Ferrous Sulfate. It is a safe and beneficial way to raise your blood count without inflicting any side effects. Following the correct dosage instructions that your healthcare provider gives you will enhance the desired effect.

Dear Doctor, today my son under went routine blood and urine test. Most of the parameters are normal except RDW-CV which shows 14.3 %. Normal range as shown i the report is 11.6 - 14.0. Is it serious ? What precautions can be take ?

Male | 30

RDW-CV is a measure of the variation in the size of red blood cells. An increase in RDW-CV can be a sign of anemia or nutritional deficiencies. Fatigue, weakness, and paleness may be among the symptoms. To tackle this, ensure a balanced diet that is rich in iron and nutrients. Further assessment by a doctor may be helpful.

Male | 21

Checking your blood test results is important for overall health. Common symptoms that may need attention include fatigue, unusual weight changes, or persistent pain. These can be linked to a range of causes, from nutritional deficiencies to underlying health conditions. To address any concerns, I recommend reviewing the results with a healthcare professional, who can interpret them accurately and suggest appropriate lifestyle changes or treatments.

My vitami b12 level is 61 what should I do

Female | 16

Your vitamin B12 level is only 61. This is below the range it should be. Insufficient B12 can affect tiredness, weakness, and pain of nerves. The doctor may recommend that you take supplements to improve your levels of vitamin B12. Tell your doctor about your preferences and expected results. Then together you can come up with the best plan for you.

It is important to develop accountability that would help find ways to rectify the issues that might be caused by certain things like symptoms, nutrition, and lifestyle factors. Such examples are anemia, infections, or nutritional deficiencies, which can be easily fixed by a better diet and correct vitamins. To get a more definite response to your tests and required actions, you must talk to your healthcare provider first. They can recommend a personalized approach and a program for you to take care of your health in the best way possible.

Sir I have done Elisa for both antibody and antoge at 42 days which means 6 week … it is a protected sex for 5 min … I am anxious … my doctor told no need to worry .. it’s good result … I want ur opinion about that … that’s y I messeged you sir… actually that partner is also hiv negative at 22 days … but my anxiety said that she has hiv she had …

Male | 27

It is good that your ELISA test results at 42 days are negative, and your partner also tested negative at 22 days. Since you have protected sex, the risk of HIV transmission is very low. However, for your peace of mind, you should follow up with your doctor. Consulting a specialist in infectious diseases can help address your anxiety and provide further reassurance.

Anti hiv value 0.229 is good

Male | 19

It's great to know that your anti-HIV value is 0.229. This shows that you have a certain amount of HIV antibodies that your body has made but not many. It could mean you were infected recently or just exposed without getting sick. Keep an eye on it with frequent testing.

She is apml pacentic but not after 3 month she had period but complete 8 little bit bleeding she had.. Is there any problem

Female | 42

It seems like you might be going through some changes in your menstrual cycle after a period of amenorrhea. Little bleeding might be caused by several factors, like hormonal shifts or tension. Other symptoms such as pain or the flow getting way out of line, should also be closely monitored. In addition to covering the potential food and stress management approaches that can assist in overall health, the first and foremost step is to see an expert who has expertise in this area. On the other hand, it's highly advisable to book an appointment with a healthcare provider who will analyze the problem.

Female | 64

Understanding test results can be challenging; however, only a healthcare professional can provide an accurate interpretation. Symptoms of cancer can include unexplained weight loss, persistent pain, or changes in health patterns. Causes vary widely, ranging from genetic factors to environmental exposures. For peace of mind, I recommend discussing the results with her doctor, who can offer a clear assessment and potential next steps. Early detection and treatment can significantly improve outcomes.

What if iron readings are normal except % transferring saturation - 12% and result shows disease Ferritin transferring TIBC Iron. Hb - 11 for female

Female | 32

This may suggest that your body lacks iron. With insufficient iron levels, tiredness, weakness, and dizziness may be felt. In women, it could lead to low hemoglobin levels (Hb - 11) thus giving rise to anemia. You are, therefore, required to include foods high in iron such as red meat, beans, and leafy greens in your diet to enhance your iron levels. Further advice may necessitate taking iron supplements based on the orders made by your doctor. Also, there should be regular check-ups so that suitable directions are provided and tracking done.

A 0.13 test result usually means the HIV test is negative. It implies that the virus-related antibodies or antigens are not found. The HIV symptoms can depend, and they are possible to be such as exhaustion, fever, and enlarged lymph nodes. Lots of people in the initial stages may not have noticeable symptoms. If there are other symptoms or concerns, I suggest you see a doctor for personalized instructions and more tests, if needed.

Hi my wife suffering with feaver and vormtings and legs pain.. yesterday blood test done..WBC below 3800 but she is looking very sick ...

Female | 24

Based on her symptoms—fever, vomiting, leg pain, and a low white blood cell count—she likely has an infection. This can cause significant discomfort. Antibiotics may help her immune system fight the infection. Make sure she stays hydrated and gets plenty of rest to recover faster.
