Haba. Suicide because of HIV. Even people that have malaria and cancer dont commit suicide.
Malaria kills more people in a year than HiV has ever killed in 30 years.
Oga calm down.
The fear and stigma of HIV kills 100 times faster than HIV.

HIV just means your immune system is weak. And something as simple as a cold can kill you. BUT if you eat right (healthy foods) and take the medicine that is now readily available in Nigeria, HIV wont kill you.
No one needs to die from HIV anymore if they are not stubborn, but cancer and malaria are killing thousands every day.

The big issue with HIV is the stigma of sex. Everybody loves sex, but we like pretending that we dont. And everyone assumes that if you have HIV, you have been sleeping around. Yet is this current issue not because of simple razor blade?

People with HIV still marry and have kids.
People are making billions from HIV and they have to continue making those billions by scaring people.

Please oga, go and do a test in 4 weeks and calm down. No need to worry.

Go to the graveyard tonight, there are millions there who will gladly exchange their life for yours. Infact go to the hospital.
Well said bro, nothing to add.

The last time I had unprotected sex, I vowed to stay away from sex or stick with masturbation if the urge becomes unbearable.

HIV is a very scary thing. I will rather use condom or abstain from sex! I can't risk my life for some dirty pvssy.
same with me bro.its more than a year now.

Did you later do the test and were you confirmed HIV+ before taking the drugs, you don't just take drugs anyhow, that's drug abuse.

Lord Jesus! All these people accusing me of sleeping with the girl, I said I didn't f**k her. The girl prior to her illness was quite bubbly and I gist with her anytime am around. That's how I got to know all that, she was quite frank about her sex life. Moreover I am no saint and I have a gf I f**k on a regular basis.

For the ones asking why I'd take retroviral drugs when am not HIV+ should know that there a procedure called Post exposure Prophylaxis(PEP) which anybody can undertake when they have cause to believe they were in a risky position. The drugs will prevent you from becoming positive even when the virus enters your blood stream.
you have strength to answer them self. That girl was recently infected. Your friend should do a check up as well. But in all. Your exposure was a no risk one.

Oga talk true. I don't think any pharmacist will administer PEP to you because you were cut by a razor blade lying idle in a bag. If you had unprotected sex, then you should the drugs diligently and go for test 4 weeks later. If you were only cut by a razor, chances of being infected are slim to none.

I am a young professional sharing a room and parlour self contain with a friend. Now my friend has always been in the habit of bringing all sorts of girls to the house. This is a conduct which I have tried my best to ignore in order to allow peace to reign.

At some point he brought this particular girl and she stayed for sometime with us. From my conversations with her, she has an impressive body count and really dislikes condoms. At some point, she became very sick. Had white patches in her mouth and was very feverish. We had to take her to the hospital so she doesn't die in the house. The Doctor ran several tests on her and her HIV status was positive.

About a week later, I took my laptop to work and when I returned, I dipped my hands in the bag to retrieve my key only to be severely cut by a razor blade my roommate left in the bag. I asked him who owns it and he said he it belongs to the girl and he put it there hoping to dispose of it later. My heart bled. I rushed that night at about 9:45pm to Ikoyi military hospital to get PEP, but the hospital said I have to wait until the next day as the pharmacy had closed. The next morning at about 11:00am, after a lot of delay, I finally got the anti retroviral drugs.

Now after taking the drugs for about 3 days, the side effects were terrible and unbearable. I already had a subsisting kidney problem and the drugs was making it worse so I had to stop. What I want to know is what are my chances if I permanently discontinue the drugs? Am I going to seroconvert? I am scared shitless and if this happens to make me HIV+, I am seriously considering suicide.

Pls help me people.

Pls help me to move this post. I need to get as much input as possible.
If your explanations are true, then you're 100% free from HIV. The fact is the virus can't survive outside its host for a long time. Even if there's a cut from an infected person, the blood must run in a (bleeding manner) before it can enter into the mucous membrane of the uninfected body.

However, our medical personnel should be able to ask questions before giving out Prep as it is not for everyone. But the truth is that oftentimes, people lie when explaining themselves to the doctor.

The lady should enrol for treatment immediately at any government hospital and the other guy should visit a testing center to ascertain his status.

But if you are planning to discontinue the Prep, then there is a need to consult your doctor.

If you had sex with her, then you need to go for a test. But my concern also goes to the girl, your friend and their other partners. They all need to go for the test and get enrolled into care if positive. You can PM me privately to get them linked into treatment in any public facility on Lagos for free treatment.

First and foremost, the virus doesn't live that long outside a human host. So the chances of contracting are slim.

Secondly, you need to first do an HIV test to figure out before choosing to start the post exposure prophylaxis(pep) because it is optional

Thirdly, yes there are side effects with taking the pep, tenofovir(one part combination of the drug) can cause kidney damage hence worsen your condition. Discontinuing the meds may not be a bad option as not everybody does complete it due to the massive side effects of the pep but if it turns out you are positive having discontinued, there is a possible chance of resistance later on in future

Lastly, being positive isn't a death sentence, I have been opportune to manage so many people with hiv who have lived n loved everyday of their lives. Yours can't be any different.

In conclusion, do a test, seek medical advice outside here, as well as a psychotherapist too and be carefulf next time

The Mods won't push educative threads on Frontpage, it's nudity they promote. HIV is not deadly, AIDS is the deadly one. HIV will advance to aids if left without drugs, it takes 10 years or less to get to this stage without drugs. Now do you know that Infection with one type of malaria, Plasmodium falciparum can kill a person in less than 2 weeks if left untreated? Something that can kill you in 2 weeks and something that can kill you in 10 years which one should you be afraid of? This is 2019 not 2002, HIV people live normally and with the improvements of ART drugs you will live like normal people do. The most important thing is knowing your status on time, if you don't check your status and it advances to AIDS then you're out of luck.

I had a fling with a very raunchy girl in poly last year and then all of a sudden I fell really sick I googled the symptoms of the sickness and i was told that HIV stage 2. I almost killed myself. But it was just peptic ulcer

This thing is all in your mind just take your mind off of it then go for hospital check up to confirm. HIV is not that easy to contract.

P.s ignore all those people saying you slept with the girl them no wan help nah gist them just wan hear

Why must he wait until he tests positive before taking it? He can prevent it in a situation like this, and that's what he did. It's not in his head.

Your fears are playing on your head already. You have been thinking of stuffs you've shared with your roommate whom might have the virus already as the girl is not a condom fan. Don't panic bro, you're fine. Discontinue the PEP and let your mind at peace.

If it doesn't exist outside the body, why is it that sharp objects carry the risk of HIV? Stop believing the things they tell you to stop the stigma. It is truly transmissible by sharp objects. The risk is only decreased after a certain number of days the object has been deprived of water and gained exposure.

3-4 days or 3 - 4 minutes?
