The answer
Hello!
We at TeenHealth FX understand that waiting for results and then receiving an inconclusive result can be confusing on what happens next or what to do next.
We recommend that you speak directly with the doctor who gave you the test and gave you the results. You can ask to get tested a second time and what the doctor recommends that you do in the meantime.
If you need help finding a doctor and live in northern New Jersey, you can call the [Adolescent/Young Adult Center for Health at 973-971-5199 for an appointment with an adolescent medicine specialist.
