Detailed Answer:
Dear XXXX,
I am Dr. Neel Kudchadkar. I will definitely help you out now.
First you must calm down. There is no point in getting frightened. You may ruin your health further. Imagine the state that you are in. There are VERY GOOD CHANCES THAT YOU DO NOT HAVE HIV/AIDS AND ARE HEALTHY. Your blood pressure may rise. Your sleep will be disturbed. Why spoil your health?
I will give you all the information required so that you will benefit.
Pain in the hands and legs is not a sign of HIV infection. This is called myalgia.
This means muscle pain in simple language. Muscle pain in arms and legs is very common. You might remember exerting yourself, say for example walking for a long distance or climbing stairs upwards in a high storey building. Or even body building with weights in a gym. Think. Try and remember. Have you over exerted yourself. OK. Now I will politely tell you to go with a good friend of yours for courage and see a good local doctor, preferably a doctor who can speak your favourite language. He will give you Acenac-P tablets to be taken twice a day after breakfast and after lunch.
Next, Go with a good friend of yours and get this test done. It is called PCR test.
