I'm really worried after what happened. I took an HIV test using the CMIA method at 7 and 8 months post-exposure, and both times it showed non-reactive results with index values of 0.09 and 0.25. Can I consider myself completely free from HIV, or is there something else I should be doing?

View allI'm really concerned about my widal test results and I'm hoping you can help me understand them. The results show agglutination with "O" at a 1160 titer, but there's no agglutination with H, AH, or BH. Does this mean I have typhoid? What do these numbers indicate, and should I be worried about any specific symptoms or follow-up tests? I'm just a bit anxious and want to be sure about what's going on with my health.

I had sex with someone new last night and during it the condom broke. It took me about a minute before fixing it and switching to a new one. Now I'm stressed about the risk of getting HIV from this. Is there a real chance I got infected? What should I do now if there's a possibility of having caught something?
Hi, I understand your concern. There's a potential risk of HIV transmission if the other person is HIV positive. I recommend starting **PEP (post-exposure prophylaxis)** within 72 hours and getting tested. Please consult a doctor immediately for evaluation and guidance.

I've been having a fever for the past 78 days, and my temperature's been hanging around 98.6 to 99 degrees Celsius. I was on antibiotics after seeing a doctor, but with my recent blood test, it says S. typhi H is positive at 180. Even with the medication from the doctor, my fever is still at 99 degrees. Can you please tell me what's going on or what I should do next?
