Hi all. My story: on a bussiness trip, I
got a lap dance and had a small kiss
session with a girl, deep, frotation with
pants on and fingered her vagina for some
time (no penetration). I was tested with
the rapid whole blood sample home test on
week 10, 13, 14 and 15 and received
negative test results; on week 15, I used
2 tests from different suppliers. Now my
questions: can I be assured that I am
definitely HIV-negative after my negatives
test result?. Do I have to test again?.
Can I woohoo? Thanks in advance. Regards.

The situation you described carries a low
risk of transmission, but it sounds like
you want to be careful and know for sure,
which is good. Basically, the only way
you could have gotten HIV from that
situation is if the girl had HIV, and if
you had a cut or something on your finger
to let the virus through. You could talk
to your doctor or go to a clinic.
"The Food and Drug Administration (FDA)
has not approved home-use HIV test kits,
which allow consumers to interpret their
own HIV test results in a few minutes. The
Federal Trade Commission has warned that
these home-use HIV test kits, many of
which are available on the Internet,
supply inaccurate results.
Currently only the Home Access test is
approved by the Food and Drug
Administration. The Home Access test kit
can be found at most drug stores. The
testing procedure involves pricking your
finger, placing drops of blood on a
specially treated card, and then mailing
the card in for testing at a licensed
laboratory. Customers are given an
identification number to use when phoning
for the test results. Callers may speak to
a counselor before taking the test, while
waiting for the test result, and when
getting the result."
