First, they test for the HIV virus, not for AIDS. They can test with either a cheek swab (no pain involved) or a blood test (have to draw blood). If you prefer not to have a bruise and have them have to take blood, request the cheek swab test.

They do a blood test.

Probably a finger prick blood test.

they have an AIDS machine that they plug into u and if the light turns green ur AIDS free. If it turns red you have AIDS. If it turns blue you have HIV .... no just kidding they do a blood test

Draw blood. And it is very expensive out of pocket especially if your getting all the tests for other STD,s . I have had it done 3 times.

A blood test(rapid or standard)is taken to determine if you've been exposed to the virus that causes AIDS first.If it is determined that you have,you'll be put on a regimen(a cocktail) of meds that fight the virus and if you're not testing positive,well,congtratualations.But what gets me is 30 years later,we still have to ask this question.Know what I mean?

ask your wife?
kidding. a blood sample will conglumrerate and do something that is highly not recommended to anyone under the age of 16.

HIV can be diagnosed by a simple blood test, which checks your blood for antibodies to HIV. Your body produces antibodies in response to being infected with a virus.
Testing can be done four to six weeks after infection but the virus may not be detected in the blood for up to three months in some people.
Sometimes results are available after a week, some clinics offer same day HIV testing.

He or she can order HIV screening for you. Your doctor will either take a sample of your blood or saliva in the office or send you to a lab to get it done.
The benefit of going to your doctor is that you may already have a good relationship and feel at ease talking to her or him about HIV. The drawback is that he or she may not be well trained in providing counseling before and after testing. A well-trained counselor can help answer questions you might have about HIV and can often provide you with referrals to local resources
