I spoke to the gum clinic about his negative test but they advised me that I only have a weeks worth of pep remaining so should just finish the course. I have been feeling really unwell with pain in my arms armpits and groins could this be lymph nodes? And due to hiv or could this be my anxiety. The gum clinic has told me to come back 4 weeks after my pep to test but I’m confused as I have read 4 weeks, 6 weeks and Evan 3 months….

Sorry, but I really can't help very much. You have had the advice of the GUM clinic, and I have nothing to add about it. They are just as expert about these issues as we are on this forum. I would follow their advice about what tests to have and when to have them.---

That’s fine I’m sorry for getting intouch and taking away your time. 

And sorry I will use this last question up I know. But I need to know this too to help me get my mind straight again…. If he was Hiv positive regardless on being meds would he always show positive on his tests or would the viral load be to low to detect because his on medication? Thank you that’s all..

Asking the same questions in different words of course doesn't change the answers. The answer to question 1 is obvious from all that has been said both above and in your earlier thread; re-read those replies. And once someone has HIV, there are no medications that make that person's HIV antibody tests negative. The PCR test can become negative, but not the antibody or antigen-antibody (4th generation) blood tests---

Just a little message to thank you for all your advise am knowledge. He tested negative at the 29 day mark which was on Thursday. I finished my last dose of last night. I want to put all this behind me now and will test at the appropriate time. Should I test at 4 weeks, 6 weeks, 3 months or 6 months. I know I shouldn’t need to test but just to close the book and finally move on from this I asked the gum clinic nurse and she said 2 weeks after finishing pep but I know that isn’t right. Thank you and take care you guys are amazing on this site.

The GUM clinic advice is for unusually early testing. Probably a negative AgAb test result at 2 weeks is conclusive, but the data on this are not robust. Therefore most experts recommend a final test at least 6 weeks after the last PEP dose, and that's what we generally advise on this forum. This doesn't mean your GUM clinic is wrong, however, and we also advise users to follow the advice of the clinic or doctor who prescribed PEP. You might have another conversation with the clinic about why they recommend only 2 weeks. Perhaps there are strong data recently in their clinic, or in UK, showing that 2 weeks is sufficient.---
