View allI'm wondering if, after being exposed to HIV, the antibodies still show up in the body even four years later. Is there any possibility that they might vanish over time? And if they might disappear, would they still be detectable after a long period?
Yes, HIV antibodies can remain present in the human body for many years after exposure. In some cases, the antibodies may decrease over time but they are usually detectable even after a long period. It is important to note that HIV testing is still recommended for accurate diagnosis and monitoring of the infection.

I'm really worried about my friend. They had some kind of oral exposure about 5 months ago, and when they got tested at 3 months, they were negative for both HSV 1 and 2, both igm and igg. But heres what's concerninghe did another test after 5 months, and his igg value shot up to 18. Just last week, he was recovering from dengue fever, so I'm wondering if that's somehow causing the igg levels to be high. Should he go for another test just to be sure? If he does have this infection, whats the treatment like? Does this mean he has to deal with it forever now? Any advice would be really helpful.
