What Does This Below HIV Tests Indicate?
test name IN-Range Out of Range Reference
HIV AB, HIV 1/2, EIA,
with reflexes
HIV 1/2 EIA AB screen non-Reactive non reactive
A Non reactive HIV 1/2 antibody result does not exclude HIV infection since the time frame for seroconversion is variable. If acute HIV infection is suspected, antibody retesting and nucleic acid amplification (HIV DNA/RNA) testing is recomended

Hi, dear.
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. Your result of hiv testing is negative. But you are tested with antibodies test. So in window period it can be negative. So right now you are negative for hiv but you should repeat the test after 3 month.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
