I Wanted To Know Whether I Am HIV+ Or Not ?
I think I m HIV positive.For now I test negative,but it s only been 6 and half weeks.Right after,I got tonsillitis, my blood resuIlt showed high level white blood cell.Now I got pressure in my head,earache,pain in forehead,seemingly stuffy nose,feels like something is pushing on my eyes all the time,throatache,white tongue,little red bumps in the back of tongue,swollen glands in neck and groin,a burning feeling in my chest and very tired. Also I ve got cramps in tummy and slight diarrhea.I don t think I ve had a fever.Maybe it is important to know I ve just finished a weeks cure of antibiotics (over the past 9months I ve been taking antibiotics 5 times, all for a week).Can my symptoms be related to other things? I can t think of anything else now and put it in my mind that there is no other explanation than HIV.

Your symptoms point more towards a bacterial infection rather than a viral one. However your apprehension can be solved by going for a western blot test for hiv. You need urgent medical care for raised white blood cells

I guess having herpes/HIV/HPV is not the end of the world. I'm living with HIV positive for 2 years. I was upset at the beginning.

It is more of psychological depression than HIV when it is tested to be negative. you should feel happy that this time you are saved. Have proper treatment and feel better. For your complaints amongst ayurvedic medicines i would recommend you to have maha sudershan ghan vati cap. streswin and abhrak sahastraputi bhasam
