It is possible to test negative for HIV antibodies during the first six months after contraction of HIV and yet actually have the virus?
HIV do not get exposed in to the circulation as soon as it enters the body. During this period the test result shows negative, even though the virus is present in the body. This period is called as latent period or window period, this stage lasts for about six months. The test can confirm only after six to seven months from the day of the virus entered the body.

Is it possible that an Rh negative blood be compatible with an Rh positive in a crossmatching procedure?
In crossmatching you don't actually mix the whole blood samples. You will mix the red blood cells of the donor with the plasma of the patient. So if the patient is Rhesus positive, it wont have antibodies in the plasma against the Rhesus factor on the red blood cells of the donor. So a crossmatch with either a negative or positive donor will be allright. So in this case, it is indeed possible.
Why is it possible to ignore the antibodies of the donors blood?
it is because the antibodies get diluted to a negligible amount that much reaction doesn't occur.
Can you have aids negative or positive?
Not exactly. "HIV positive" means that someone's test for HIV antibodies came back positive, i.e. that the antibodies are present and that the person has at least been exposed to, and is almost certainly infected with, the virus. AIDS, however, is a syndrome, or condition. There isn't a specific test for it, so the terms "positive" and "negative" have no real meaning. AIDS means that not only is the person infected, but the infection has progressed to the point that they are showing symptoms. You can be "HIV positive" (the test showed antibodies) or "HIV negative" (the test did not show antibodies), but not "AIDS positive" or "AIDS negative". Everyone with AIDS is (or should be, since HIV is the virus that causes AIDS) "HIV positive", but it's possible to be "HIV positive" for a considerable length of time before eventually developing AIDS.

Is it possible for a hyper thyroid to be irradiated and not burn out?
Yes, it is possible for a patient to undergo radioactive iodine ablation and still have a functioning thyroid. If the patient has autoimmune thyroid disease and antibodies have not been addressed, it is possible for a patient in this situation to suffer the rollercoastering effects of antibodies on the remainder of the thyroid gland.
Is it difficult to have offspring with blood types rh?
It is possible to have a child who is rh negative if either yourself or the child's father is rh negative. If you are pregnant for the first time you will receive a rho-GAM injection. This introduces antibodies into the mother's system so that the fetus is protected for the duration of the pregnancy. This prevents rejection of the fetus by the mother.
