A negaive test result maybe interpreted in the following manner:

1. the patient does NOT have the tested disease

2. The antibody-antigen reaction has not yet occurred within the patient, sample taken too soon in the incubation period

3. The sample was taken incorrectly or stored incorrectly, some organisms involved in stds are temperature/time sensitive.

4. Low probability but might be sample mismanagement either in collection, transport or at the testing facility

If you test negative for chlamydia are you good to go?

Both partners should be tested; you should not assume that you are negative for STDs based on your partner's test. Various situations can lead to one partner being negative and another positive. Don't take a chance.

What could be the repercussions if the laboratory test are negative?

Well... it depends on what the test is for and whether a patient hopes the results might be! For example, an 18-year old male might dread that STD testing will be positive--- but to his relief, it is negative! A 33-year old woman who desperately wants a baby hopes the blood test is positive---and is devastated from hearing the test is negative--again. A "test" is only one small part of health "care".
