Emmm....
Actually it should be 6 months as during consultation, the doctor sort of educate me.
The best defence is to go for AFA regularly since it is cost only $20.

Re: HIV screening info
 

I did ask AFA abt this during my testing. I say all websites from US and Europe..mentioned 3mths..Y sg is 6 mths. They told me it is extremely rare to c +ve result at 6 mths if a person is tested -ve at 3mths. Any how...they say for low risk cases, the are also okay with 3mths. So for my case, they say its low risk..so 3 mths will do. Actually it depends on who is believe. No harm test again at 6mths if u r not confortable with 3mths. I have read enuff websites that says 3mths will do..so I am okay with 3mths.

Maybe we Singaporean have factored in the K.S. factor so it is 6 months in
Sinkapor while the rest of the world is 3 months. :)

Re: HIV screening info

its all about stats lah
6 months to be absolutely positive
3 months more than good enough in most cases....

Re: HIV screening info

Go for AFA no need IC. test for HIV only ,15mins only.

Kena STD is curable if detected earlier.
Kena HIV, may got have mercy on your soul.

Re: HIV screening info
 

Ouii,
Me done my blood test on 16 .
Did you went for AFA on that day boh?????

Re: HIV screening info
 

Just came back from AFA HIV testing(Anonymous) today at DSC. Result negative.

Standard procedure. Upon entering the black glassed door, turn right pay 20 bucks to counter, fill in a form, name not required. U will receive a recipt which will be your number for today.

Told to wait for number to be called. K, counsellor called number, went in room some brief counselling after that directed to another room take blood test. Single drop of blood taken from 'Non master hand'. Told to wait 15 minutes.

Waited outside for the results. It will be handed to u by the 1st counsellor. Told to return in 2 more mths time for 2nd check which will be 95% accurate if tested negative again. End of check up.

ps/: Do wait for at least a month from suspected infection date before going for the blood test.

Use a condom always. Good luck! Early detection means early treatment but the best is negative of course. Some stds when detected in early stages can be treated with antiobiotics but if too late discovered than will be uncurable. Be wise, think twice.

Re: HIV screening info
 

Regarding those who have many queries regarding symptoms of early stds and HIV warnings, all I can say is that we r not doctors here nor any professionals. The warnings and symptoms have been summed up at some of the threads with livid pictures and written symptoms. However some stds may have no symptoms at all.

Advise to see a doctor for checkup immediately. Don't wait till it is too late. :cool:

Re: HIV screening info
 

yeah many have come to for advice instead of doctors...
That's just not right...
