 The typical symptoms of HIV-associated dementia include short-term memory loss, slowing of thinking, social withdrawal. Some people also develop difficulties with irritability and emotional lability. Progressive symptoms of HIV-associated dementia usually occur in those who have failing immunity, low CD4 count and high viral load. Your best bet is to get on an effective HAART regimen. | ||||||||
