Hi,
After testing out till 4.5 months , i have tested +ve for chlamydia pneumonia ..
Which is also not easily curable as if you read on cpnhelp.org it says it can take years to eradicate the bacteria from the body , and this bacteria is like a retro virus which replicates inside macropages & monocytes ,
Damn that is causing all my symptoms since all these months and these sick docs were saying i was having stress etc ..
But i knew i have been in stress before but never had shortness of breath due to it.
Shit happens and it happened .!
God knows what is gonna happen now.
I hope other worried guys with undiagnosed symptoms also get their answers.
I still have some weird symptoms which are not even related to chlamydia pneumonia but i hope those will go away .
I don't even remember how i used to be before all this crap.
I want my life back .!

Wait a minute you spent 4.5 months on here arguing with us claiming that it was HIV and we said it wasn't. That you should look somewhere else. Your the dipshit that argued and told us it had to be HIV. Don't even start to blame us for your suffering. Cause you could have accepted it wasn't HIV and tested sooner for other things. You did it to yourself.
But now that you know it's not HIV and you will be cured piss off. Really mean that and please cry to Bartley about how I told you too. You've been nothing but a pain in the ass and then want to blame us for your own suffering. Typical worried well.

Hi, what test did you do? Is there a treatment? I wonder because my psychiatrist told me none virus could affect the heart, but a bacteria could. So I want to test for that too. I took a test for chlamydia trachomatis at six weeks post exposure an it was negative. Is it the same bacteria? Do you know?

I'm glad you've figured out what's wrong with you. But why are you saying its similar to HIV??? And from what I've read you'll need to take a combination of antibiotics to eradicate the disease from your body. Have you began treatment yet?

It's nothing like HIV.
He said that to make him sound like a martyr, because he didn't want to eat crow. Fact of the matter is his illness is as common as the cold. Almost everyone has this infection at some point in their life.

Kicker ,
I never tried to convince you that its Hiv & never blamed you for anything its just that because i was told by doctors that i should get tested for Hiv & syphilis only .
I also though that if it would have been Chlamydia trich or gono it would have caused me pain in my genitalia .! So i went like this only .
Also i had a fear that if i test +ve for HSV1 or 2 that will give me stress because most of the people have HSV 1 .
Thank god i tested -ve for IgM & IgG for HSV 1 & 2.
@sherezade I tested for Chlamydia pneumonia it takes 8 weeks for IgG to be +ve for it although you did not tested for it.
You can read more about this disease on cpnhelp .org this C pneumonia is bad and has been associated with many diseases.
@dontbelive it:- I have started the treatment but doctors just gave me prescription for 2 weeks only .. they don't think that it could take a while to treat the disease & i do not want it to progress .
& why i am saying that it is like Hiv because the bacteria infects the macrophages & monocytes and travels through out the body just like Hiv , it travels to brain & can cause neuropathy ( which i am having ).
I have ruined my body , i have never taken any antibiotic till this age , i used swim 6 times across the pool continuously, now i get shortness of breath after running half a mile , life is a bitch.!

No not like HIV. Nothing like HIV. From the CDC
Clinical Features Pneumonia or bronchitis, gradual onset of cough with little or no fever. Less common presentations are pharyngitis, laryngitis, and sinusitis. The spectrum of illness can range from asymptomatic infection to severe disease.
Etiologic Agent Chlamydia pneumoniae, proposed new name, Chlamydophila pneumoniae. C. pneumoniae is distinct from other Chlamydia species.
Incidence The overall incidence is unknown. Each year, an estimated 2-5 million cases of pneumonia and 500,000 pneumonia-related hospitalizations occur in the United States.
Sequelae C. pneumoniae infection may be associated, by some investigators, with atherosclerotic vascular disease. Associations with Alzheimer's disease, asthma, and reactive arthritis have been proposed.
Transmission Person-to-person transmission by respiratory secretions.
Risk Groups All ages at risk, but most common in school-age children. In the United States, about 50% of adults have evidence of past infection by age 20. Reinfection throughout life appears to be common.
Surveillance No national or state surveillance exists.
Trends Unknown. Improved diagnostic testing may lead to improved recognition of infection.
Challenges There is a lack of standardized diagnostic methods. Isolation of the etiologic agent is difficult, so antibody tests using paired acute- and convalescent-phase sera have been used for diagnosis. There are no known methods to prevent possible sequelae. The role of C. pneumoniae in atherosclerotic vascular disease needs further definition.
Opportunities To apply new laboratory methods to develop better diagnostic tests and to evaluate association between C. pneumoniae infection and atherosclerosis, as well as other chronic diseases.
Now that you have found the true cause of what ails you there is no need to keep us updated. Good luck with your recovery.

Very interesting Mike, thank you for the information. I just read in cpnhelp.org that this bacteria could be related to several diseases like CFS, MS, Crohn's, cardiac disease, Sinusitis, asthma, etc...
Also, It's getting my attention because in my blood work for the first three months the neutrophils were high, which is indicative of my body fighting a bacterial infection, not a viral one. And my heart is getting affected, and my pupils are huge.
I'm going to test for that. Thank you again.
