U should have left this wicked friend of urs when u found out he is +

Palehair:
I'm +, just found out last month, I didn't get it through sex but from my heartless roommate whom I had a fight with, this guy stopped his medication for the virus to be back in his system just to get back at me, when I came back for second semester, I had forgotten about the fight, i don't even know how he infected me whether it was through my food or water but last month during holiday, he sent me a WhatsApp message and reminded me of the fight we had during first semester and that i'm +, i didn't take it as the end of the world because there are things worst than HIV, believe me worst things are out there a billion times worse than HIV, let this be a lesson to everyone, be careful who you offend, the idiot blocked me on WhatsApp and also my number, he was in his final year so we obviously won't see each other again, but I don't want to harbor any hate in my heart towards him, it's never a great way to leave, we are almost close to a cure, scientists just eliminated the virus in a lab rat for the first time this year, human trials are next

Ttrrffyyghuuh:
symtoms can't tell you anything, even a full blood count test can't tell you anything, only a HIV test can..
symtoms are very ambigous, it all falls down to headache, nightsweats, nausea, fever e.t.c and it could be caused by anything, from malaria to typhoid, and yes even anxiety and stress, hiv symptoms tend to be generic, so only a test can validate.

Don't be a google doctor, go to a real doctor, if you have stomach ache, google will tell you you have liver cancer, when in reality you probably just ate too much, i believe google helps one to know what to expect, more or less, but its no substitute for a real doctor and/or a lab test

You're not far from the truth Bro.
Sometimes googling symptoms can be your undoing. It only heightens anxiety

I do sincerely want to send my support to the OP. You are a brave one. For those doubting him, the OP posted this on someone's thread in June and he still perfectly reeled out the same accounts of what transpired. Many of us are just too all-knowing without even working with the tiniest whiff of probabilities.
Those saying its extremely hard to contact HIV this way or that way should continue with their bla bla bla. I hope they do not come back someday to post that they regret ever holding such briefs

cocococo:
I suspect he may have used you toothbrush severally. Tooth brushing is a very possible way to contract HIV.

You can't contact it by sharing the same toothbrush

That would've been discrimination which isn't right besides my uncle who is a doctor have been living with it for 15 years now and we treat him no different from how we would treat a normal human being

Neddstark:
Sorry for your situation. Any idea where one can get PReP? God is your healer. Just dont tell anyone around you. We are a society that discriminates till tomorrow.

Just hearing of PREP too

Some women are infected in the hospital during child birth.

Possibly

I sent you a PM. I want like to chat you to know how your body reacted to the PEP drugs. I finished my PEP 2 weeks ago. My babe tested positive 6 weeks ago. There was an exposure that same day before the test. We actually did the test in my house because I had the HIV strips. We repeated the tests in the hospital that day, and she turned out to still be positive while I was negative. I used protection during the exposure, but there were other risky activities, coupled with the fact I had a cut on my finger which may have contacted her fluid. Also when we did the test, the environment was very bloody because of the nasty pricks we pricked ourselves trying to get out blood for the test. I didn’t wear a glove, and I could remember her trying to press my thumb to squeeze blood out of my thumb with probably her unclean hand because I took her blood first(how clumsy of me for not looking at the HIV test strip where I had placed her blood. If I had noticed her result was positive, I wouldn’t have even allowed her to hold a pin to prick me when she didn’t wash her hand). Well, after confirming her status at the hospital that same day, I received my PEP drugs the next day(as yours but, an Indian brand called Hetero; yours is Mylan from US I suppose). All through the 28 days, it wasn’t easy. I had severe anxiety. Having plenty HIV test strips in my house didn’t help either; I pricked my self countless number of times to release blood to check my status using the strips almost every 3 days. I finished my PEP after 28 days which was 2 weeks ago; a test that day came out negative. I did a test yesterday( 6 weeks after exposure) which also came out negative. But I know it is too premature to be jubilant. A test 3 months after the exposure (6 weeks from now) will give me a better reflection of my status. Meanwhile I had sore throats and running nose in the later half of my 28 days of my PEP. I even still have some mild sore throat, a feeling of internal heat up till now even though my temperature never goes above 30C, some goosebump-like rash on the centre of my chest, and persistent stooling. I developed these symptoms when I started the PEP drugs, and I felt they were side effects of the medication. It really worries me that I still have the symptoms 2 weeks after stopping the drugs. At this point, I have zeroed any optimism of remaining negative at the end of 3 months or 6 months after exposure. I’m tired of the anxiety. I will probably not do any more test until after 3 or even 6 months. What will be will be.

Wow

Palehair:
The worst part is that most are living with the virus and they don't even know about it

this is the fact. Obvious one. The mistake they make is they feel one has to be sick before he knows he has HIV. See those doubting the time frame of my having it. I am just smiling, the thing is some have and fall sick for sometime and then get healthy again that’s what happens to me. Others might be healthy and all till later years. A lot of people have this virus but they have no idea. Most people tend to find out on a routine test. That’s why I advise people to go for the test, that way it’s going To be reduced. If only I can be an advocate, but with the discrimination, nah.

FROGMAN101:
What are you on about? Who doesnt know it requires one exposure to get HIV?? I am saying if he was using a condom and it busted immediately he pulled out, it is extremely hard to get infected in that manner. HIV is really difficult to get. Go and read the facts and then quote me.

Your one exposure could be having sex without protection.

Extremely hard but not impossible

PrecisionFx:
Treatable or curable?

Curable

I'm taking PEP drugs now. Had unprotected sex, my mind wasn't at rest the next day. I started taking PEP drugs within 48hours. The side effects of the drugs no be here small thing. And the procedure of getting it was tough for me, they nearly denied me saying I should go bring the girl for test, also I had to undergo two HIV tests which was negative. how do I convince a one night stand to follow me to hospita? Thank God they finally gave me the PEP drug but even at that my mind never rest. God bless help me oo.

Modified. The PEP is a single giant tablet. The drugs has side effects, I couldn't sleep, bad dreams, I'm already worried how I'm going to take it for a month and bad thing is that this is just the second day but I can't risk it.

My guy u damn right..

ghettochild:
Stop talking nonsense...fool

Relax na the fear of HIV de kill fast

How can you contract HIV immediately u withdraw after a condom burst and you felt it n withdraw not possible hahahaha

It's is only when he continues to bang bang bang like femi kuti song and her blood find way to enter his own blood via d penis that it can catch him

There are people whose state are stronger no matter wat hiv can't get Dem haha see you

A whole lot of Nigerians really need to attend seminars n be educated on the various ways n the several risk of contracting HIV....
Most people are here are ignorant of this disease called HIV... They stick to the one time knowledge they have about HiV n keep spreading this unupdated information they have on HIV.....

Trustmeall:
1. I don't know how or when
2. When I was discovered to be - ve in one of the ancient Teaching Hospital, I was advised to be using Condoms. I used Condoms but I was not okay. I then started having the thought that if I can be having sex with a woman for 7 years and I didn't get infested, why avoiding direct sex. I guaranteed myself that I can't have HIV by sex again.
3. Let me tell you that I showed her love beyond ever when she was diagnosed +ve. She felt insecured, especially after I did my own test, but I assured her of my commitment.
4. I used to follow her to the clinic initially. I met a man who had similar circumstance with mine. It was then I realised that it's not just me that can be that lucky. Especially, via sex. I am still very careful about blood contact though.
5. I have rump sex with my wife, serious French kiss till date and nothing has happened to me. I have done several rapid test.... Same result

Men like u is what PLHiv need....
U are a rare jewel

Palehair:
He told me he injected a soda he gave me with his blood and semen

So HIV can survive the acidic environment of the stomach abi??
What's d quantity u ingested

Palehair:
You are definitely right, i first considered it when I was diagnosed but I was fully switched to exam mode, so I postponed it to after exams but now we are on vacation so it will be done at the dawn of a new semester, but where do i start?, i'm just 18 and that was my 100l, i haven't even told my parents yet and don't plan on doing so because the judgment and ignorance from both of them will be worse than the virus itself but if I do it, i'm not only fighting for people he must have infected in the past due to minor arguments but also for those who may be at risk of him infecting them in the future, he blocked and l deleted me on all social media platforms except for Like(it's similar to Instagram),I sent him a dm telling him I don't want to hold any grudge or hate or anger towards him and enumerating the consequences of what he did but he also blocked me on that too

Send us his names.... On social media..
We will get justice for u

Do u know how wet the lady was when d condom burst
After how many thrust did he realised d condom had burst
Did he attempt to clean up with soap?? He just got another condom and continued again..
So what u r saying his condom burst can lead to HIV?

My bro, wake up....
The only time one can be safer is if the lady is already on ARV n theres a condom burst...

Pleasure of a few minutes and all is gone. When the Bible warned against fornication and that anyone who defiled his body destroys himself, people don't understand.

Ronaldo24682:
I felt like sharing so others will learn, this might also create awareness as I feel a lot isn’t done to educate people about the insidious HIV.

I will try to be as brief as possible. Sometime this year I had a fling with a girl, I have always been careful as to use protection when I ever I have sex, unluckily for me my condom broke, I realized this immediately and pulled out, got a new condom and continued, wasn’t up to three weeks or so I fell ill, malaria like symptoms and all, during that same time I started having some hiv symptoms like.

Had to go for a test it came out negative, this was around week 4 or so. Despite this test I knew I was positive, I just had the feeling I was, the doctors and lab attendants were just playing it down, no disrespect but most lab scientists here have really poor knowledge on HIV test kits and all.

But it has been 2 weeks since I stopped taking the drugs.

PrecisionFx:
Nothing special..she can't infect u because HIV - AIDS is a hoax

What are the real causes of HIV positive in the body, if it's not through sexual intercourse?

Jordan777:

I have taken this drugs before, the symptoms are nothing to discuss about. Bad dream , dizziness, weakness, it’s a 12hrs medication. If you are to take it 8am in d morning u are to take it 8pm in d night and immediately go to bed. It was terrible that period.

I take mine 8am. They said it must be taken at the same time everyday

rosy1992:
well done OP, abstinence is still the best way to prevent HIV.

Just pray not to e unfortunate. Most women abstainers get married to responsible men.. Just a single match outside from the man changed everything. Just pray. While most runz girls are clean till ages.

I just finish taking mind last two weeks

As you are a nonconformist at heart; would you be willing to skin-dive with an HIV +ve lady or you you normally pound raw regardless.
Just curious


So called HIV does not cause AIDS.

AIDS is failure of immune system which makes the body vulnerable to all available diseases and thus death occurs, death of an immune system has been around for a verg long time now (it's as old as mankind), it isn't new.

Some nonconfirmists say HIV is a passenger virus (meaning that just like other viruses n bacteria living inside us without harm)...HIV virus causes no harm and shouldn't be treated at all.

Some other nonconfirmists also said that HIV is just like a particle in the human body, completely safe n causes no medical illness at all.

The nonconfirmists I'm talking about are renouned medical doctors, molecular biologists, Chemists, Phd holders in their respextive fields. They written books to disprove the HIV causing AIDS false theory, they have made count less videos on the matter and they have called on the doctors selling HIV SCAM to come and meet them in a televised national debate on the matter, but the scam doctors refused. Isn't it odd that governments have refused to arrest these nonconfirmists, withdraw their medical licences n sue them to court for misleading the public?

One of these doctors even brought a very popular American celebrity who is HIV positive on television, collected the patients blood and openly jnjected himself wit it, all in the view of proving that HIV is a scam.



Meanwhile Late Dr Sebi, A Black Herbalist from Honduras have cured Sickle cell, asthma, cancer, AIDS, High blood pressure, diabetes etc several times.......He even won a court case against the city of new York wen they wanted to send him to jail for misleading the public and practicing medicine without a license.


The world is a wicked place and the HIV shittt is a business for some people, that's why these lies as being sustained.




HIV does not kill, what kills HIV patients is the toxic anti-cancer drugs used in the 1960s to shrink cancer cells, those drugs are very deadly. Now they are giving same drug in low doses as cure for HIV.


HIV PATIENT'S DONT FALL SICK UNTIL THE DAY THEY ARE TOLD THAT THEY ARE POSITIVE.....From that day, fear, hopelessness, regret, sadness, anger, Etc will lead them to depression, lack of appetite, lack of will to live...

Lack of appetite will cause them to starve their immune system of nutrients needed to power it, the immune system dies and then AIDS occurs.




A HIV patient should simply stop taking any drugs n live their lives, nothing will happen to them because they are not sick.




Go to Google, search for IS HIV A SCAM? U will see countless YouTube videos made by professors of medicine n professors in molecular biology disproving HIV and AIDS nonsense

Please go sit, you have no idea of what you saying.

Ronaldo24682:
So I had to do another test at week 6. This was when the test picked up the virus. I will try to educate people here with the little i learnt, maybe it will help for those who wants to learn.
We have two different types of hiv test kits. One test for both antigen and anti bodies this one picks the virus as early as two weeks, and results comes out withing days to a week, with a window period of a month(meaning by a month and your result shows negative then you are free). The other checks for anti bodies alone and this one picks the virus withing a month for few people, mind you for few people and most people at three months as that is when the body might have produced enough antibodies for it to be detected. And the latter is what we use here in Nigeria, where finger is pricked or blood drawn and the result comes out within 15-20minutes.
The bad thing here is we are not well informed about the window period and seroconversion( period when one is turning from negative to positive and takes as long as 3 months in most people and 6 months in some, meaning your result might show negative yet you are positive) and all that, I advise you google this, due to this lack of information people go about thinking they are negative and go about infecting others, until the sickness has progressed to a later stage where they start falling sick.
My piece of advice is ensure you use condom( and pray not to be unlucky like me, the girl who gave me has no idea she’s infected ) if condom breaks there’s what they call PREP, it’s a medication used within 72 hours after exposure to prevent you from catching the virus if your partner is positive.

Which test strip did u use for your second test?

Lexusgs430:
I hope they would listen..... Those that love chopping raw......

Chopping raw is the natural and best way sir

Ronaldo24682:
I sure did still +. I am ok now, already came to the fact I am positive, I don’t feel bad anymore about it since I started connecting with others I met here on nairaland.

Evenwith HIV, one can still live a normal life. Get married and have kids. Just take your drugs and maintain a low viral load
