Anyone who thinks they may be HIV positive should get tested.
In 1988, when the virus was killing many, I developed a condition entitled "AIDS ANXIETY".
This condition can literally drive you nuts! Checking yourself constantly for symptoms, Going through panic attacks, it was terrifying!
I recently tested positive for HIV, but I am not having sex at all which I think is good advice.
By testing positive, I have learned that I can be re-infected by another form of the virus where meds will not help so I choose not to have sex.
If you are re-infected with a different strain of HIV meds may be useless so if you do have sex, PLEASE wear a condom!
If you question your HIV status, then by all means get tested, it will prolong your life.
I have gained weight and feel much better taking Sustiva and Combivir. I wish you all the best of luck!
