specialist clinic while on a blood test. I
have recently done a rapid SPOT-Tridot
test, 6 months from that incident. the
report says- Normal Range Negative. can I
be rest assured that i am 100% in the
clear. please advice.

Sounds like your in a
panic...chill. Its OK. If your not
satisfied with the results then go to a
clinic and get a blood test done. Its
simple. Dont work yourself up into a panic
attach. Take a deep breath and go get
tested at a clinic if you don't trust the
test you have already taken. How on earth
did you get a needle prick injury at a HIV
clinic? Was it a used needle? I guess so
since your so worried about it...go to a
free clinic and get tested there if your
not 100% satisfied with the results you
already have.
P.S. I personally dont care for the rapid
tests...its a personal choice but I prefer
blood tests or mouth swabs...good luck.

I just looked at your profile and see that
you have a history of thinking you have
been infected with HIV. This sounds to me
like a Anxiety problem or OCD. Please go
to the Anxiety forum for advise as your
fear of HIV is not really associated with
your true issues. Good Luck.

tridot test is not 100% correct so go for
ELISA. if it comes negative than u r
allright. don't worry. and take care...
