I May Be Hiv Positive, How Do I Break This News To My Wife by Repercussion: 2:44am On Mar 06, 2020
I’ve been feeling sickly in the past few weeks. I know very much that I may have been exposed but really didn’t think much of it because the only person I had sexual contact with outside my wife is someone I see every day and she still remains healthy. How ever I’ve been having some symptoms in the past few weeks that’s been giving me serious concern. Yesterday I decided to get an hiv rapid test kit on Konga and based on the result it came out positive a bold line on c and a very faint line on T. I’ve secretly cryed my self out. My wife is pregnant and also not feeling too well. I plan on going to a lab later today just be be sure.my real issue is how to break this to my wife. I’m afraid the news of this will kill her. I just don’t know how she will react. I also can’t tell anyone to talk on my behalf. I really need help waking from this nightmare.

Update!! I came out clean to my wife this morning and she followed me to the general hospital where I took the test. It came out negative. I will be back in 3 months to test again. Thanks a lot for your words of encouragement.

Don’t kill yourself over an unsure test. Go to a government hospital and have a thorough test.

Most importantly, it’s not the end of life

Go for the test and be sincere with her so that she can also test herself and know how to manage her health irrespective of the result. The deed has been done and condemning you changes nothing.

Hopefully, it isn't real and please desist from such act going forward.

You need to stop beating yourself up over this. The deed has already been done and there's no point crying over a spilled milk. Just ensure you visit a clinic first to get yourself checked and be completely sure what is going on. It might not really be HIV, it might just be something else. Just go confirm what it is first. And also, learn to remain faithful to your wife henceforth. Be careful!

After doing what my comrades up there suggested and the result is still positive, please don't tell your wife now. I doubt if she can handle this with her present condition.

The lady you had sex with that you think is healthy might be on medication. Having unprotected sex can lead to only two things, unwanted pregnancy or disease. So, don't be surprised. When you were having unprotected sex with her, what were you expecting Plasma TV?

Thanks to advance in medicine, HIV is no longer a death sentence. Go to a hospital and get yourself properly checked out. If you're indeed positive, register for antiretroviral drugs. Tell your wife to go get checked, too. And if she's positive, she also can start taking antiretroviral medicine so that the baby she's carrying doesn't have the virus. Good luck to you and your family.

hearing this (hiv rapid test kit on Konga) for the first time....Better to visit the hospital and do a retest ....then go seek advice from medical personnel on what next step to take. If it is positive visit a counsellor with your wife before breaking any news, but you can arrange with the doctor to carry out a test on her. If it is negative Congratulations. If you are both negative double CONGRATULATIONS.

When you guys are asked to stay one place, it will be no we are polyganous and God created us like that. Fool, why are you scared?? Was it not God that made you like this?? Better prepare for the worst because your wife will snuff out the life in you. Idiot.

i loathe giving advice since nairaland is now filled with trolls.
Nevertheless, that kit might be expired hence the faint line. Do go to a good lab and take a proper test.

He’s only realizing now because he’s scared he’s HIV positive other than that he will still be cheating on the poor wife and wouldn’t be here. Some of you men are pathetic. So stfu and keep scrolling.

I don't know why people keep doing this to themselves. I've always been so careful with my life, it's better safe than sorry. We all know "AIDS no dey show for face", so, why would you adjudge the lady's status with her look? Now you know that you have a wife and you didn't even care to know her status before going on to sleep with your wife. Now it has ended in tears.
I'm not saying I'm perfect but if I need a sex mate aside my wife, I will get her tested first or I will just double my CD.

I'm afraid, ur wife may never forgive you. And the earlier you go for the test the better cos you will apply precautionary measures if +. Right now, your wife may be at high risk of infecting your other children if any cos I know mothers share sharp objects a lot with their kids.
Just pray this won't be the end of your family.

truth is, for me, I’ve made my peace what ever the outcome. What’s killing me is the poor woman who doesn’t deserve to suffer for my mistake. I know I messed up big time.

Delay is dangerous! Go get tested asap and know your status and start treatment immediately if needed. For the sake of your wife and unborn baby, I hope you're negative.

Men have been bringing countless problems to themselves and families in the name of "we are polygamous in nature" or "we cannot eat the same kind of food for many years". If they're not dying like dogs in hotel rooms, they're bringing incurable STDs to the family.

If you are later confirmed positive in a lab, then you have successfully allowed your wife and probably your unborn child( if care is not taken) reap the fruit of your labour.

You’re disgusting sir. I hope God will protect that woman and the innocent unborn baby from being infected. You don’t deserve them.

I will warn you to desist from self-diagnosis cos it kills faster than the ailment so diagnosed. If you are experiencing any symptom of an ailment rather than go to Google, I strongly advise you go to the hospital for proper diagnosis and evaluation. Many have gone to their early grave cos of this.
