The doctor will ask about your symptoms, medical history, and risk factors. A physical exam will be done. Your doctor may order the following blood tests:
- ELISA test —used to detect HIV infection
- 95% will have a positive test within three months of infection
- 99% will have a positive test within six months of infection
- If an ELISA test is negative, but you think you may have HIV, test again in 1 to 3 months
