I just read that they do a confirmatory test called a Western Blot after the Elisha test for hiv?

Q: only when the test is POSITIVE..and also they need time to set up counseling in case its positive..so since it obviously takes more time to do another test to confirm a positive.is it safe to assume your negative if u get called in early?

A: Confirmatory tests depend on what area of the world you are in.The ELISA test is the first test, which is an antibody test. Usually if positive, it goes to the Western Blot which is a more specific test for HIV. Most labs run these tests in batches.

How to approach A Booty Call about Testing for HIV?

Q: Scenario: You & him (or her) experience this tantalizing sexual tension whenever you two are around each other. You might be friends, have mutual friends, work together, etc.You are ready to close the deal and make him (or her) your booty call buddy BUT you have to know 100% for sure that he (or she) is HIV negative AND don’t have any STD’s (or STD’s you prefer not have).How do you approach him (or her) to take an HIV test and STD screening with you at the same clinic so both of you can be sure y’all are in the clear?Would you demand this from a one-night stand? (Of course it ruins the fun but eh).

A: I dont know for sure if you could get the other person to do this but my best advice is to not do it at all if you need to be completely sure. If you must do it though you could be sure to use a condom, and birth control if you are on it. But hey if you think you gotta be totally sure just come out and ask it means that you care about your body and you have respect for yourself and your partner but I guess that it would not hurt to ask.
