On 1st, OCtober, 2006. I was stuck by a used needle.The needle was still fresh, I know this is a risk for HIV..
I planned to get tested six weeks post exposure, but on 6th, October, 2006, I was beaten by a stranger dog, so i went to the hospital, I took the Rabies vaccine, I took 06 shots in two weeks later, plus one shot of SAT vaccine.
I monitored my boidy during two months, and I experienced no fever- no rash-swollen lymphs at all, because I know ARS can occur during this period, but I see nothing...
I plan to take a HIV test, but I am worried, I have two questions:
1-Does the two vaccines make my sero-conversion longer ? I mean if I had not taken the vaccines, the frame reqiured is 13 weeks post exposure, but it can be 06 -12 months in my case ?
2-When I took the vaccines,my body would produce anti-body agaisnt Rabies, Does rapid tests confuse this anti-body with HIV anti-body? I mean my Determine test could react to Rabies-antibody and lead to poz-result..

HELP ME!THANX

to lessen your apprehension submit yourself for an HIV testing now. maybe, it will not mix with the rabies vaxine because the
determination of hiv is different from that of rabies. act now before its too late.
