If he was taken to a hospital the same day this happened, they would assess his risk and start him on PEP for HIV if they decided he was, in fact, at risk.

I forget my original cd4 count. Up until a few months ago, I was on treatment pretty much the entire time I was infected.

It depends on what your pulmonologist will do with the result. If he "just wants to know" without offering treatment plans depending on the result of the cath, I probably would not do it.

HIV can be transmitted due to sharing needles, this is because the blood interact. Unfortunately, there is no cure for HIV (note that HIV isn't the same as AIDS) but treatment for this virus is really advanced.
