Confirmatory HIV test

Question: I did a sin and committed a risky act which could have lead to HIV transmission 20 years back. I have since repented and been faithful to my wife. I tested recently with a 4th generation test. It was negative. Can I move on with my life?


Answer: Yes, you should. A 4th generation test after 3 months is considered to be accurate. After 20 years you can safely depend on the result. No more testing is required. You are not infected with HIV.

Be aware!

False Positive HIV Antibody Test

Question: I did a rapid test in my home for detection of HIV. There was a faint line. Is it possible that this was a false positive?  Answer: It appears that the test was not done correctly. You should follow the instructions carefully when you do this test at home. At present, I would recommend a blood test in the lab or hospital. It is possible that this was a false positive. Since this test is very sensitive a possibility of a false positive result is always there. Love yourself!

Social Anxiety And Shyness

Question: I am extremely shy and afraid to go out? What should I do? Answer: It is possible that you are an introvert and this is not due to any underlying condition. However, if this is disabling and preventing you from doing your activities of daily living and achieving your goals you should consult a psychiatrist since it is possible that you are suffering from social anxiety disorder. The treatment of this condition is by behavioral therapy. You should consult a therapist who has experience in Acceptance And Commitment Therapy (ACT). This type of therapy has shown a very good result in treatment of this condition.
