∙ 13y agonormally, a diagnostic company tests for the HIV antibodies that your body creates to fight the virus. since the virus becomes part of your DNA, a lot of times they can look at your DNA. mouth swab tests generally test for the antibody while a blood test works best because you can actually see at the HIV cell. now, I'm not a doctor but I am an HIV patient who is in med school to work with other HIV patients. I suggest you contact your doctor or try http://www.thebody.com and see what a professional has to say as well as further your knowledge on the virus.
