I had a brief one time  sexual encounter with a man of unknown status. He claims he is “OCD about his body” and 100% clean but has quite a reputation.  Penetration was very brief only 1-2 seconds and I insisted we stop due to no protection.  Later that evening I noticed a very small amount of blood so I am concerned I had a minor cut in the vaginal canal.   My regular partner became ill with strep about 6 weeks later and he responded to antibiotics once given. I became ill with a sinus infection which turned into bronchitis and made my asthma worse. This started around 7 weeks post exposure and lasted for about 7 weeks until it cleared. I tested with alere dertermine combo at 8weeks 6 days (63 days total) past exposure. The result was negative. The clinician stated I needed to re test at 6 months. Was my test conclusive?  I am concerned about my partner’s illness and my sinus infection/bronchitis, could these have anything to do with acute hiv?  I wasn’t even concerned about hiv until my partner came down with an illness. How accurate is this test at 9 weeks past exposure?  Can very brief penetration without ejaculation cause hiv infection if this man was infected?

Thank you very much for your reply. I tested at 63 days not 63 weeks as stated in your reply. Can I assume my results are still conclusive as you stated 42 days is conclusive?  As a follow up question: is it possible to transmit hiv with brief penetration and no ejaculation?  

 I apologize. I was typing too fast. Your results at 63 days are certainly conclusive. ---
