sadly....yes
You can not conform the presence of HIv with the blood test, you need to go with ELISA, tridot and also western blotting.
No the HIV test is not a medical examination. It is a blood test.
There is a huge difference between them. HIV Positive means that the test found HIV-Antibodies in your blood (you can find them in the mouth sometimes). A HIV-Negative test means that the solution did not find any signs of HIV in your body and your in great shape.
No there is not. You must be test to find out if you have the virus.
No, HIV is not checked in routine blood tests. The test must be specifically ordered.
NO, in fact a normal AIDS test doesn't even test for the virus itself, it test as to whether or not your body is making the antibodies to the virus. a HIV, AIDS test is separate from other blood tests and must be asked for specifically.
An HIV blood test can tell if you are pregnant. When doctors get results back from a blood test, though they may be testing for a specific thing other things will get flagged as well. For example, when you take a home-pregnancy test and then go to the doctor's to confirm you are pregnant, often they will run blood tests to determine pregnancy. An HIV blood test will show whether or not you have HIV, but will also show whether or not you are pregnant.No; a HIV blood test won't tell if you are pregnant.
There is a specific blood test for HIV which is used for diagnosis.
A thyroid blood test will not detect HIV. Ask for the HIV test by name.
They will perform a blood test for the HIV antibodies to determine if you are HIV infected.
You describe a normal complete blood count. That is a finding separate from the HIV test. Whether you need an HIV test is not based on the complete blood count; instead, you should have an HIV test based on your risk factors for acquiring HIV.
The ER will not find HIV unless they specifically test for the virus.
