Living With HIV / Re: Bariatric / Weight-loss Surgery for HIV Patients« Last post by hylas on Today at 11:55:31 am »I had bariatric surgery about 3 years ago. At my consultation, I shared my status with the surgeon who didn't bat an eye. He noted it on the file and never mentioned it again. I also consulted my HIV doc. No changes were made to my Dovato regime. I skipped one dose the day of my surgery but took a dose the next morning when I woke up in the hospital for my single day stay. Note that I did have to bring my own Dovato because the hospital didn't stock it regularly. I've had no blips in my viral load or changes to my CD4. What did happen was that I lost 124 pounds, am no longer pre-diabetic and was able to cut out my statin for high cholesterol and retired my sleep apnia mask as well. I did have to take Ursodiol for 6 months post surgery and was careful to not take my bariatric vitamins at the same time as my Dovato. Oh, and sex, dating, etc.... 1000% better now....

Do I Have HIV? / Re: Sexual acts/symptoms/nervous/HIV« Last post by Jim Allen on Today at 10:47:17 am »Hiya.
Several factors can play a role, such as STI status, stage of HIV infection/viral load, tearing or not, etc, etc and some of these factors could increase the odds by 25-40%. In short, nobody can calculate your individual odds of acquiring HIV from this incident. Being a receptive partner would also have an increased risk but you were the insertive partner. Generally speaking, HIV is difficult to pass on compared to other STIs but it does happen and we still see 1.3 million new cases [1.0 million–1.7 million] per year globally. There is not much more we can do for you here, you had an HIV risk, a real-world one and should test when due. You had condomless intercourse twice and are now stressing about it, next time use condoms and then you will not have to stress. P.S. None of your symptoms are HIV specific, see your healthcare provider and get whatever is making you sick treated. 6
Estoy infectado? / Re: Paco« Last post by Tonny2 on Today at 10:22:05 am »ojo. Hola!… Siempre y cuando tu pajarito esté cubierto con un condón intacto, estás protegido y qué bueno que te proteges porque además de protegerte tú proteges a tu pareja. Si estás preocupado por la caducidad del condón, trata de llevar tus propios condones para que no estés en esta situación de angustia y preocupación. Sigue la instrucciones del moderador, protegerte mejor y proteger a otros… Sigue adelante con tu vida y sigue llevando tu gorrito si te vas de fiesta. 7
Living With HIV / Re: "HOPE DIES LAST"« Last post by Tonny2 on Today at 10:17:55 am »Ojo. Thank you very much, my friend, Patrick, I really appreciate your hugs, I am going to be OK, sometimes I feel frustrated. Like I said it is what it is, I have been through a lot that this situation is not going to defeat me… You are such a sweet guy, I like you a lot, you made me smile every time I read you, well, as should say, when my cell phone read your messages to me… Abos 8
Living With HIV / Re: I couldn't have timed this better -- how I broke to news to my date« Last post by CalvinC on Today at 09:02:50 am »Thanks, Bubba.
Later that evening, he texts me about the NBA game, and there's some back and forth, and then he's going home and says he misses me. Okay. And then.... and then yesterday, nothing. I don't get it. I've decided to give him space. No choice, really. And so maybe yesterday means taking space. Who knows? I'm just tired, but I'm still going with No Contact. Leave him be. If he wants me, he knows where I am. 9

Estoy infectado? / Re: Paco« Last post by Jim Allen on Today at 07:40:03 am »El VIH no se puede transmitir a través de un condón de látex o poliuretano intacto. Si un condón falla durante el acto sexual, es obvio. No hay razón para estar estresado por las relaciones sexuales mientras no ocurra este problema obvio. adelante con su vida. |
