It depends on the hospital. The hospital I use has a policy to test your blood for HIV except while doing a blood test, you expressly tell them not to include HIV. The OP should not worry. HIV is like malaria now. Only difference is, you will live with drugs for a long time. No need to tell any other person except your lover. The stigma is not worth it. All the best. |

By d ethics of d medical profession, d doctor must tell d patient everything: his diagnosis, tests n investigations, results, treatment plan, prescribed drugs, side effects, etc....unless d patient is not in a conducive state of mind to comprehend. But our Naija doctors think it's a privilege if they tell u...even when u know n u ask, their response will make u feel like u have committed a crime. If a doctor suspects HIV, he must let d patient know he wants him to do d test. And d patient must be counseled before d test to prepare him for d result, esp if it turns out to be negative. But not so with some nigerian doctors. Op pls let d girl go for counsellling oh. HIV is no longer a death sentence. It can be managed.. My humble submission |

kenonze: Your handle profile says you are male. How come your doctor wanted vaginal samples from you ? Hmmmm. Before u see monkey, monkey don see you. I am not doubting that you are HIV positive, but why go to a doctor you dont trust, only to turn back and criticize him? |

I work in a teaching hospital, and I can categorically say HIV is no way close to a death sentence once detected early! They jux need antivirals + good food and pshychic support 1 Like |

reflx: On all counts ke!! Pls before we all assume, in 90percent of instances, doctors do efer patients 2 VCT but hope u guys know dat dere r circumstances in most hospitals including teaching hospitals where patients are investigated 4 hiv routinely: 1. All pregnant womeb MUST be investigated for hiv, consent or not. Do u think it's 4 d benefit of d doc? It's simply 4 d sake of d baby. And b4 u start thinking of how wrong dis is, Be informed that most pregnant women are not even about their hiv status until routine ANC visits. I have seen cases where the pregnant women even know deir status but cos of d fear of not been allowed to breastfeed babies in future, do not disclose it. It's is now left to the doc to test dem durin ANC lab screening and counsel dem that dey can be positive and still breastfeed as far as dey r on HAART. 2. All blood donors MUST be screened 4 hiv, consent or not. Don't ask me why. The answer lies in ur imaginations of u falling a victim of infected blood recipient. E nor go funny. 3. All in-house patients booked for surgery must be screened, consent or not. This is to protect the doctors by taking extra precautions during surgery! So Pls let's stop criticising the medics without considering our environment (NIGERIA). WHO/FG allow dis exceptions because it's tailored to our environment. So don't assume a 100% guideline procedure would be same in naija. If it means adjusting the rules to get good results, den let it be, thanks. 5 Likes |

sartorius: But u r contradicting urself nawww, u say, it is wrong and still give an example of a woman refusing test. Well This is exactly what I was saying earlier, so don't u fink, it wud have been better, the pregnant woman was tested unawares for the sake of the health workers and unborn baby?? |

ocheejemb:Abi o! She went for STD test, I don't see where the doctor has gone wrong. He simply carried out a full test since her complaint required a lab test confirmation in the first place. Moreover, he did the necessary, he counseled her before he told her the result. The 'hug' is not out of context, it was to make her feel relaxed...a part of counselling (he actually hugged her even when he already knew her status) In real sense, she owes the doctor a big thank you and she should better stop the blaming game and start taking care of herself 1 Like |

kenonze: HIV virus is a hoax. HIV is the greatest fraud of our time. Tell ur friend to avoid taking any HIV drug, those drugs are very toxic and will kill her in. a few Years. HIV is just an anomaly in the immune system, it's not a virus. Let her do exercise n proper diet, that would save her life. |
Re: My Doctor Told Me That Am Infected With HIV Without Prior Notice Of The Test! by Nobody: 4:28pm On Jun 29, 2017 |
No. Visit another hospital infact federal hospital this time, test for HIV and know your status. If you are positive, stay calm and don't panic....register so you can start treatment and if you are negative, report that hospital or the doctor that attended to you, his licence may be withdrawn. Never forget God still heals.. Yes..I've seen him do it... Wait oo, I am not understanding...... How did u see God heal people? Are u his cousin? Do u live inside the clouds lmao. |

kenonze: A German/Austrian Biologist Christyl Meyers did her PhD project on the HIV virus, this is her findings. U can equally read up about her to know who she really is. U can also visit HIV/AIDS forums and see for urself thousands of members who never took the retroviral drugs or stopped taking the drug(almost at the point of death) and they are still very much alive n well. HIV exists, it's not a virus, it's just an anomaly in the immune system. Too too many Dr PhD holders, biochemists, biologists including those that have won Nobel prices for science n biology , etc have come out and presented all forms of evidences that the HIV is a Hoax. But the powers that be will never allow it fly. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SaA6zLUPfvk&hl=en-GB&gl=NG |

...A HIV positive person said this, she has been on the HIV drug from 1988 to 1992 and she almost died of side effects .... But a doctor friend of hers saved her life. The doctor told her to stop the drugs n gave her a diet n exercise regimen which she has followed from 1992 to 2017, 25 years n she's still alive, strong n kicking. This screen grab is from a HIV N AIDS forum
