HIV scare, help

2018-09-18 03:30:01
Hello, 9 months ago I had unprotected oral sex with someone. 9 weeks after I had a blood work hiv test and it was negative. I know they say to be conclusive it needs to be 3 months. Since then I have done an ora quick home test at 5 months and 8 months both negative, but my anxiety has convinced me that it's not reliable. Should I get tested again?
