Patient's Query
Hi doctor,
I am 24 years old male. I have done a fourth generation CMIA (chemiluminescent magnetic microparticle immunoassay) test which came negativeafter 10 years of post-exposure. I have also done RT- PCR (Reverse Transcriptase - Polymerase Chain Reaction) for Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV1 and HIV2) but both came undetected and my CD4 count is 428. I was sick for the last one year with abdominal pain, oral thrush, body pain, mouth ulcer, neuropathy, lower back pain, etc. So, I am confused that do I have AIDS (Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome) and is my result false negative. Please help me.
Hello, Welcome to icliniq.com.
The fourth GenerationCMIA (chemiluminescent microparticle immunoassay)kit test is 99.9 % correct. But symptoms are present. (Cluster of Differentiation) CD4 count is also not that high, but till results are negative. No one can say HIV positive. Go to any government hospital and give the blood test. Privacy is maintained, and confirmation is their whether your previous results are negative or not. This is the way to find out what is the problem. Your immunity is very low, so take Gilo Ghan Vati of Patanjali three times a day after food. It has no side effects. It increases your immunity so as CD4 count.
Patient's Query
Thank you doctor,
Are my RT-PCR (Reverse Transcriptase- Polymerase Chain Reaction) test fine, that is, target not detected?
Hello, Welcome back to icliniq.com.
RT-PCR (reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction) have lots of error. So you never know. So we cannot consider its accuracy.
Patient's Query
thank you doctor,
May I go for the PCR DNA (Polymerase Chain Reaction Deoxyribonucleicacid) qualitative for confirmation?
Hello, Welcome back to icliniq.com.
You can, but highly authentic is still fourth generation CMIA (chemiluminescent magnetic microparticle immunoassay) kit test. As your CD4 count is not below 350 to 360, the results are negative. You can go for viral load. If it is more than 20 copies, no chance of HIV.
