I'm a bit confused about my Widal test results. The report shows typhi O and typhi H at 180 positives, while paratyphi A and B are both 120 negatives. Does this mean I have typhoid or not? I'm worried and would really appreciate your advice on what these results indicate.

I'm really stressed and can't focus on anything because I'm worried. Is the p24 duo HIV test accurate if I'm testing at 21 days? I'd really appreciate some clarity on this.

I recently had a risky encounter with a commercial sex worker and was pretty worried about HIV exposure. I went to see a doctor right away and started a post-exposure prophylaxis treatment with tenofoviremtricitabine and raltegravir, just under 12 hours after the exposure. I just finished the 28-day course and got tested on the 29th day with a CMIA test that came back negative. Does this mean Im in the clear, or should I be concerned about anything else related to HIV?
It's reassuring that your CMIA test on Day 29 was negative, and you took PEP promptly, which greatly reduces HIV risk. However, follow-up testing at 6 weeks and 3 months post-exposure is crucial to confirm your status fully. Stay positive and consult your doctor for guidance.
