 Hi Isil and thanks for posting from Turkey. It's good to hear that your health is good and that you're on a well tolerated HIV medical regimen. There's much written about HIV and aging- there are concerns about premature aging and possibly special risks for heart, kidney, liver, cognitive and bone health, to name a few. That said, I expect all of my patients to live essentially normal life spans with excellent quality of life. Best of health to you, BY | ||||||||
