I'm just wondering about my recent HIV test results. Me and my boyfriend have been together and sexually active for over a year, and he's HIV negative. I got tested today and the result was non-reactive but it showed an observed value of 0.16. What does that 0.16 mean exactly? If I were to take the test again, is there a chance that this number could go up? I'm just a bit curious and concerned about what it all means.
