HIV/AIDS Support

Back in 2005 I had PCP pnuemonia was in the hospital my CD4 four was 3, the Doctors said they were going to be honest with me and tell me I would not leave the hospital alive (I also went from 200 pounds to 96 pounds) . I said bullshit it's not time for me to go, my life partner (16 years) is home sick and I need to get better to take care of him. 45 days later I left the hospital still sick (but not life threatening anymore).

I lost my life partner a year later and due to friends and also a HIV/AIDS support group that I attend, I was able to cope.

We are now approaching 2012, I am still here and kicking my weight is normal, my Cd4 count fluxuates between 400 & 500 and my viral load is undetecable.

I firmly believe a strong will power is a major factor in fighting HIV/AIDS plus being compliant with your meds.

I am really glad to hear you are doing well & wish you all the best and am glad you found our group here.
