Re: Is 2 weeks or 4 weeks elisa test good enough???
No, a regular ELISA is only 90% accurate at 4 weeks. But you could also have a 4th generation test at 4 weeks and the result would be around 99% accurate (as would a 3rd generation test at 6 weeks). Whatever you choose to do, you will need to have a confirmatory test at 3 months.

I understand your need to aerate your anxiety about symptoms but nobody here can diagnose you and HIV is not diagnosed by symptoms. HIV symptoms are non-specific.

It is not productive for anyone here to get into a discussion about them. You're going to have to wait for your HIV tests to know your status.
Re: Is 2 weeks or 4 weeks elisa test good enough???
I echo was Joggen says, talking about symptoms is not productive and more so is pointless as you can never tell your HIV status by symptoms, if that were the case, every poster here would be positive in their eyes.
Where did you have this exposure? Most CSW will always use a condom, can you explain in more detail?

Hence proving that what you believed to be ARS symptoms were not. And further proving the point that no matter how much you try to self diagnose HIV you cannot. Your test at 4 weeks is slightly early and needs to be confirmed at 12 weeks. It is very unlikely to change but it is also very important that you do have this result confirmed.
In the mean time keep away for Google, keep away from the self examinations and stop playing out worst case scenarios. None of these will have the slightest impact on your 12 week confirmation test.
