How Often Do People With Hiv Get Sick Hiv/aids/low Immune System?

Hiv/aids/low immune system? - how often do people with hiv get sick

I am concerned I am happy about my friend. It has unprotected sex with a few people had 5-13 years with various realtionships. She always makes the flu or a cold again, but has other medical problems and fibromaygia and is based on the strong medication for pain. I did a search online for people with low IMUN system and found that HIV. He had no blood work (HIV) and normal left. She went through many surgeries and had blood work done all. If anyone has a normal white blood cell count means that there is no way I could have HIV? The sex was not accidental, but no protection with some long-term realtionships do not know why you so often ill. I'm worried. I know they can just let go check, but he does not seem willing to A. You have symptoms of HIV, but she has a cold / flu and is very weak, sick. Doc says nothing about the signs show the work of his own blood from a person who may have HIV, it is possible, normal blood results, white blood cells with HIV?

Normally, HIV will lower the proliferation of CD4 cells. However, CD4 cells in a very low total white blood cells, so that when the blood test was only for white blood cells and no CD4 cells, while it seems unusual.

Even some people with HIV lose CD4 cells faster than others. Some very rare as "no progress", which means that even if they are infected with HIV, your CD4 count remains more or less the same.

It is not possible HIV infection through a CD4 cell count, or as colds, flu, bacterial or someone's diagnosis. There are a number of "AIDS defining diseases such as pneumonia, PCP, Kaposi's sarcoma, toxoplasmosis, and brain, but it will not appear until someone is blown AIDS. An antibody test ELISA and Western blot is the only way for the ultimate test to go.

John S is absolutely correct. It may take 10 years to show on your system, but really you should tested.You HIV may have no symptoms for a while. Since many colds should change maintain their usual eating and talking to your doctor about a multi-vitamins with a prescription. If your immune system is weakened, if she is sick, it is the only possible outcome of the cold surface. I hope it heals, and I hope that helps.
