Tony! 😂 That's only a step better than "Super AIDS" topics in the just tested positive section ;D. In general HIV is just incredible difficult to pass on sexually even when all conditions are perfect and individual factors play a role such as relatively low viral load etc and safer to presume the OP partner is susceptible.

           ‘ojo.           What I meant is that if the. OP it’s already living with aids, and he’s asking if he can have sex with his wife, if she is HIV negative after having sex with her husband, it’s most likely, I think, as she’s not going to get the virus. But now that he knows that he has the virus, he has to use condoms during his sex activities… I remember one case on the Spanish forum when the girlfriend of a member of the forum had the same situation. She couldn’t understand why she was still shaving negative even though he was having sex with her boyfriend before he got his aids diagnosis. Then, after she found out about her boyfriend’s Diagnosis. They started having safer sex until they had a problem with the condom and she was so scared that she might have gotten the virus. She went to the clinic to see the doctor to get some pep but the doctor told her I have to giving her the medication, that he thought she was going to be OK. So she didn’t want to take the medication and she still heavy negative… i’m not sure he say explain myself. Remember that English is my second language. ..OP Please keep us posted.

So I was admitted to a hospital for Acute Respatory failure and diagnosed with Pneumonia. They drew labs and discovered I was HIV 1 +. My CD4 was 27 and CD4% 2 , Viral Load was 300,000.

.....

Everyone is saying I will be fine but I know that those numbers meant I had full blown AIDS.

I am sorry to hear your Dx but the big question is, How are you doing?  I hope you’re doing well. 

Now, onto your question.  We started at about the same point.  I was initially hospitalized with pneumonia that was actually PCP, found out I was HIV+, CD4 count of 2 and a high VL.  I thought my life was over in 2017 and worried as I saw myself as having AIDS.  It did take me a while to get comfortable and realize I would be OK but sure glad I made it through and living my life again. 

I'm still here in 2024, CD4 count is over 200, and no other opportunistic infections since. 

I'm unsure where you live, but I learned that the definition of AIDS changed in 2017 that you needed to have 2 opportunistic infections in a 12 month period and a CD4 count under 200.  Well this was at least how it was described to me as my specialists kept saying I have “Advanced HIV”. 

Just remember to ask questions, take your medication, and wondering if you are on Bactrim.  I was on that for just over 3 years to help until my CD4 count got over 200. 

We also have a bi-weekly Peer Support call if you would like to join and ask questions or just learn from our experiences.  https://forums.poz.com/index.php?topic=77329.0

I’m wishing you all the best
