Question

I'm really worried because my HIV rapid test came back negative after 7 months, and even the HIV Western Blot test was negative at 4 months. But I've been experiencing a lot of infections in my body. Is it possible that the tests might not be conclusive? Could there be any reason why my immune system is acting this way if not due to HIV?

Based on the negative results from both your HIV rapid test (at 7 months) and the HIV Western Blot (at 4 months), it is highly reassuring and suggests that you are not infected with HIV. However, if you're experiencing multiple infections, it could be worthwhile to investigate other underlying causes with your healthcare provider for further evaluation.
