Get counselling and testing in a competent medical center then confront him for explanation. Demand that he submits to same test if u are not satisfied with his explanation. Rray

My Dear,You know your husband..Ask him why he has that in his car.In a non-confrontational manner..
'Babe, i saw this medication in your car,please can you tell me what's going on?'.He may say it fell from a tree,he may say it belongs to someone etc.Is he in a high risk job like medicine?If he is,sometimes when he gets pricked by a needle or maybe had a mistake contact with fluids from an infected patient,he would normally be given a prophylactic dose of anti retroviral.
Please discuss with him and for peace of mind,tell him that you'd like the 2 of you to run tests..You are not accusing him of anything but you just want peace of mind..It is essential you both see a counsellor too depending on his explanation because i know you are out of your mind with fear and worry now.
You could just go and run a test for yourself,just to know.Even if it is negative,it is still essential that your hubby too gets tested just to clear the air..
Sorry oo...

She doesn't have to tell her husband before going for a test. This isn't a fertlity issue. She can confirm her status independently, and discuss the outcome with her husband with a view to convincing him to do the same. Any reluctance from him, might then mean having to become suspicious.

It seems quite normal for a nigerian "married" men to have affairs under their wives noses even when they are suppose to be in a one man one woman relation.

Married men seem to always make it a point of duty to be in the clubs or drinking bars almost every night in naija,especially in places like lagos,abuja,"old kaduna,kano and co,leaving their wives and children at home traditionally.And the women doesn't seem to see anything wrong about it.

It is a different case if a man is polygamous,which i dig personally but for one to say he is married to a woman and not stick to her day in day out is very unscrupulous and dangerous.

Hi pals! I know this is odd . Recently , I have been experiencing the dreadest of all dreams, and it's been giving me a truck load of concern. I didn't need a prophet to tell me my spiritual life was hijacked .Thus, I settled for prayers and I'm glad I did. As usual, a girl came, merchandising

Anti-retrovirals (ARVs) are used either for treatment of HIV infection or for post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP). The first step to take is to go for counseling and testing (CT) in a reliable health facility. Avoid unprotected sex with your spouse. Depending on your test result, your doctor will offer you appropriate advise. If you are not satisfied with the services of your doctor, contact me for free advice. (kinguwem@fastmail.co.uk)

Re: I Found Anti-retroviral Drugs In My Husband's Car. by PapaBrowne(m): 12:28pm On Apr 29, 2012
Just thinking! What if the husband is a nairaland member and sees this thread?? It is not every question you throw out on the ignorant public! They would give you all sorts of useless advices that would probably complicate your existence!

First, how do you know the drugs were Anti Retroviral?? Don't know how the drugs look like, but I'm thinking, they surely wouldn't write AntiRetroViral on them rather they would write a brand name. Its like writing Anti Cancer on a cancer drug. Methinks they have a brand name. So did u cross check to find out it was Anti Retro Viral.Like take the brand name and do a search on google or something.
You could end up making a storm out of a teacup with this one and it could put an end to the trust you guys share!First be certain before you conclude.

Secondly,if you are certain, you would have to ask him and do so wisely. Don't go asking why he is taking Anti Retro Virals. Ask what drugs these are and why he is taking them. From there you can probe further. But remember also that if he is HIV+ve, it is not the end of the world. Do a test yourself. Afterwards the way you handle the situation would determine to a large extent the quality of your existence.

Finally, get wisdom!! It would do you a lot of good!

LOL,

What is it with women rushing to NL, for issues with their HUBBY.

You found the drug doesn't mean he is a HIV carrier.

Why don't you ask him before jumping to conclusion.

Nairaland is a citadel.Most of you may not admit it is,but this place questions your conscience and your imaginations.

The nearest thing to seeing the light for many is here.

Talk to him about the drugs and hear what he says. Whether he agree being positive or not ask him to go run test with u before u know the next action.

go for a test and ask him what the hell he is doing with anti retro viral drug.
Re: I Found Anti-retroviral Drugs In My Husband's Car. by stagger: 2:52pm On Apr 29, 2012
Your husband is obviously hiding the fact that he has been exposed to the virus. You are better off going for a test.

Good news is that if he has been taking it for sometime and he is HIV positive, the chances of you contracting the disease are reduced. I read a pamphlet to this effect but I do not want to jump the gun. Go for a test.
