Yes, an HIV test conducted 75 days after potential exposure is usually conclusive, and if your result is negative, it is a strong indication that you do not have HIV. However, if you are still concerned, it may be a good idea to follow up with your healthcare provider for confirmation and peace of mind.

I've had a low-grade fever for the past two months, and my doctor recommended some blood tests. The results showed that I have typhoid, my WBC is elevated to 16,000, and my ESR is at 70. I'm really worried about what this could mean and what steps I should take next. Could you please help me understand this better and advise me on what actions are necessary?
