Usually you only go for two tests. They are blood work. One taken after 3 months from supposed infection and another taken after a total of six months from the supposed infection.

Your next test will be your final test as it is on the 6 month mark.

Why worry when you can pray?

I don't know much about the new tests. My experience is with blood tests.

What types of tests are you taking?

All the best

The way it works with blood work is that you count three months from the supposed infection date and get tested. After that, wait another three months and get a second test again.

During this testing time, you should not put yourself at risk.

Wishing you well.
