I played safe as long as before we knew how to prevent it and then with so many dead it was very unusual to have sex raw. Too risky and it still is. But I always feared I had it. I wouldn’t allow myself to know it for sure. I knew it too, but I wanted to not have to think about the fact that I had it every day. At least my way it wasn’t a constant reminder of my guilt and shame, society’s, and mine. I waited and when I was so weak and my Dr told me I was going to get tested and he had never Told me anything before, it was always a discussion. I was at 32 T cells and more than one Dr asked me if I had my affairs in order. I was not given meds for a month while they tested which drugs I could have that I wasn’t maybe already resistant to due to the meds my partner/s may have been taking. Was misdiagnosed with lymphoma when 2nd biopsy said + signs for lymphoma seek treatment. They were wrong for 2 weeks. Felt longer. I’m a smart man, my affairs were in order. I could in no way take care of myself for 3 months. My mother and my aunt had to fly 1000 miles to do the job of me and household. But in 3 months I was back at work, full time. Lucky I sit all day in sales. I did everything my second HIV Dr told me. I was very suspicious in the 1st Dr I could see, cause I would have seen anyone with first appt. He put me on ativan and yes it helps your nerves and helped me sleep. It helped me sleep all day and every day but not at night as much, more like a cat during the day. It was awful and Dr 2 was horrified. Of course in 2 mth I was addicted one per day. Takes 4 no sleeps to get over it. Morale, make sure you trust any Dr in front of you and remember when they are in that room its because of you and You made that appt to get help so demand it. Take your medications and get as much movement and as you can to keep you fit. Watch what you eat a bit and don’t worry that can be a fun thing to learn to do and you will like a lot of it more. Nutrition is just as easy to quickly fix as anything, and you can still have anything during your week. It was maybe 6/7 yrs by now. I don’t know, I’m not counting but I’ve been able to handle many longer journeys abroad after that first year. I have a lot of side effects but I don’t think they get me down, its the 46 that gets me down cause my body is too skinny to ever be in any shape. Always thin so need to remember to eat. Hope you will too. You will be pretty good just ask questions to all new signs, pains or strange symptoms. Undetectable means you are where you want to stay, but that sure doesn’t mean you cannot pass it to others.

I appreciate the info also. My first POZ was in April of 2008. My numbers have been, according to my doctor, unecessary to be on anti vitals. I would like to know where I can find more research on whether getting down to undectable at time of of contraction or whether the route of prolonging starting as long as possible is better? Do you have a preference with your patients or place for research. I’d appreciate your feedback.
