how many long it takes - ( years ) gets to manifest the AIDS( not the HIV)?

My parents call me a hypochondriac and ever since I found out what HIV/AIDS was, I have been obsessed. I am very afraid of the disease but I am fascinated by it. I look it up online constantly and I watch movies and TV shows on it too. Recently I started to think that I lived a past life as a victim of AIDS. I am into the 80s mostly because AIDS was a crisis, so sometimes when I have free time, I look up the 80s and AIDS to see what comes up. Is this OCD or just a strange obsession?

Over the past 5 days I have had very bad dry mouth and Diahrea, should I be worried about HIV/Aids. Thank you so much for any feedback or advice, which will go a long way for me.

I am also aware that HIV is not diagnosed on the basis of symptoms, but I was wondering whether face fat loss and redistribution of fat is caused by early HIV infection, anti-retro viral medications or long-term HIV infection that has progressed to AIDS?

Has anyone heard of this hiv like virus in china? If so please share FACTS with me! I'm hoping it's bs.!!

latex and polyurethane condoms have been shown to PREVENT the transmission of hiv...of course that is without condom failure.

Anyone can have lipodystrophy and not be related to HIV or AIDS. Those that have lipodystrophy in HIV is usually due to the HAART medications one takes. Zerit is one of the medications that has a history of causing lipodystrophy.

Hello, I am an 35 yo gay male who noticed a red mark right under the lip of the head of my penis in late december of this year. It seemed to go away and then another showed up in another area over the last few days. It is a red mark between the lower head of the penis under the "lip" - it does hurt a little bit when you touch it. I have only received oral sex lately, and have never had unprotected anal sex in my life.

Welcome to the HIV forum. I reviewed your discussion on the HIV community forum and agree with the opinions and advice you received there. Kaposi's sarcoma is a rare outcome of HIV, limited mostly to gay men with HIV. (You don't say your sex. Male or female?) That's because KS is caused by a particular virus, called human herpesvirus type 8 (HHV-8), also called (logically) the Kaposi sarcoma virus (KSV). HHV-8/KSV is rare in heterosexuals but very common among gay men.

Dec 1st marked the 25th anniversary of World AIDS Day, a time when the president urges Americans to come together in support of those affected by HIV/AIDS, and continue the commitment to a world free from the disease. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton echoed President Obama’s views. “We have set the goal,” she said. “We know it is possible. Now we have to deliver.” How optimistic should we be about efforts to combat HIV/AIDS? http://tv.msnbc.

I'm 21 years old and have made myself to belief i am an "AIDS child". Each day when i go to sleep i feel a pain which is totatlly wired. I have had the worst flu' f my life back in december and i was going to se my doctor. I have talked to my socalled fiance on the phone throught this chole process. I was wondering why i ate much, but did not gain weight. I was having dry coughs, and had this flu' like for 3 weeks.

With unprotected vaginal sex, do you know of any statistics with what chances are for getting HIV from an HIV or AIDS infected person? Are chances higher to contract the virus through anal sex vs vaginal? I will definitely get tested (normally get tested for STDs anually which I would assume would also test for HIV). Do you have a recommendation for specific tests I should get that would put all my fears, 100%, to rest?

Which world do you live in? you do not get "AIDS" like that; It is HIV you are talking about. And there are no doctors on this forum.

Sounds like those old myths about masturbation are being recycled about fingering. (It used to be that people would say it causes hairy palms, physical weakness or mental illness. None of that is true; the stories were caused by guilt, lack of information, and someone trying to shame kids into not doing it.) If those old myths have now popped up about fingering, it's probably for the same reasons -- guilt, lack of information, someone trying to shame kids into not doing it.

but i have heard that body fluid can enter the body through skin is it possible that can u have aids?

Of course there are other ways to get infected with hiv. Pregnant woman to fetus transmission, for instance.
