How do I make an appointment with the doctor to get tested for HIV?
Dear Bob, If you feel you have put yourself at risk you should get testing now, and six months from now. Three to six months is the accepted window period for going from a negative to positive HIV test. Your girlfriend should get tested too. Use condoms for the next six months. When you get retested after six months, if you are both negative you can quit using condoms, unless you are using them for birth control. Best to get another form of birth control happening, such as the pill. Here is a link to a good site about the window period for HIV. http://www.sfaf.org/default.aspx?pid=18#… Best wishes.
