Hi @yooniscabdala, it sounds like you might be worried about the results of an HIV test. Have you spoken to your doctor about the results of the test along with your hepatitis B status?

Most members of Mayo Connect are not medical professional and cannot answer specific medical answers.

I googled your question like you probably did and could not find an answer. There are some things that do interfere HIV testing. I think you need to ask provider that specific question.
