Cable Positive HIV/AIDS Information
YES! The only way to know for sure if you are HIV positive is to be tested! Since the virus attaches and hides itself within the white blood cells and cannot be seen, the test (called an HIV antibody test) will detect antibodies produced by your body to combat the HIV virus. The HIV antibody test needs approximately 3-6 months to accurately detect the presence of these antibodies, so it is advisable a person wait approximately three months after possible HIV exposure to get tested.

What is an HIV antibody test?

Cable Positive HIV/AIDS Information
When HIV enters the body, it begins to attack certain white blood cells called T4 lymphocyte cells (helper cells). Your doctor may also call them CD4 cells. The immune system then produces antibodies to fight off the infection. Although these antibodies are ineffective in destroying HIV, their presence is used to confirm HIV infection. HIV tests look for the presence of HIV antibodies; they do not test for the virus itself.
