Can you go back to having HIV after having full blown aids?

Thanks to all of you i always knew the answer was no but i just had to check.
This guy I know has AIDS and married his wife with out telling her this bastered knowingly gave his sickness to women with no regard to their future now that the hat is out the bag he is trying to clean this Cesspool up.
I hope who ever reads this please be careful AIDS and HIV is real.

As many have answered no. Once you have been diagnosed with AIDS you will always be clinically diagnosed with AIDS regardless. However understand that the person can rebound to healthier state with meds in time even though your immune system will never be the same. Some people with AIDS are prone to sicknesses and others may be in better health once on meds etc.... Not all people with AIDS are the same. Some people fit the CDC criteria for AIDS just by the lab numbers and others fall in to AIDS for other chronic sicknesses etc..

Just to clarify the on the above poster 20 or some pills is not the norm nowadays with improved medication a lot of meds have been condensed to less pills. Some people with AIDS take an average of 3-4 HIV meds and some with 1-2 HIV meds with AIDS. There are others have to take more pills than that but they aren't all HIV meds usually. It all depends on other conditions and other health problems combined with AIDS.

No..

AIDs is the end stage of HIV infection.

A person living with HIV (medically known as an HIV positive person) is one who has virus in his/her body. Such a person, remains infected and is presumed infective for the rest of his/her life. However, s/he will appear to be perfectly normal and healthy and asymptomatic for many years. An asymptomatic HIV infected person does not have Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome (AIDS). But when an HIV positive person's T lymphocytes (which are responsible for the immunity) count falls to 200 or less, s/he starts developing symptoms for eg. cough, fever, diarrhea, skin lesions, etc. They are due to opportunistic infections (so called because they develop when the body's immunity becomes deficient) like TB, Thrush, Pneumonia, Cryptococcal meningitis, etc. All persons with AIDS are infected with HIV, but not all persons with HIV infection have AIDS. AIDS is only the end stage of this infection.

Once diagnosed with AID it doesn't change, but to be diagnosed as having AIDS mean the person's T cell are 200 or less, with that said, I know people who had their T cells below 200 and have gone back up to 500 or higher. So He could think he went back to HIV, but once diagnosed with AIDS it isn't changed.

if you have full blown aids you wont live long enough to have HIV again. lol

it attacks your immune system so your white blood cells are being killed. so it's not the AIDS that will kill you. it'll be the common cold or something very small like that where your body can not fight it off. some life huh.

No, once your immune system has collapsed to that extent, you will never go back to having just HIV. It is a progressive illness unfortunately.

NO, once you have AID's, you are in trouble, it's nasty with no cure

Aquired Immune Defficiency Syndrome

Absolutely not. There is no cure for AIDS, or HIV for that matter, just treatment to put off the inevitable...death.

no

No, once you have full blown AIDS you're CD4 (basically white blood cell) count has dropped below 200, once you reach this point, there's nothing no one can do for you. Acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) is the final stage of the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).

To put it into perspective for you, a normal CD4 cell count is about 600-1500 cells

They'll give you some of the following medication but that's all they can do:

When you have AIDS, you have to take like 20 pills a day on certain hours, if you miss a pill you have to call your doctor. You're life literally has to revolve around you taking your medication. It鈥檚 so hard and expensive to deal with, most people choose to just stop taking their medication. AIDS tears down and leaves your immune system so weak that something as small as a common cold or a flu can kill you. My friend died from AIDS in February, she had a cold.
