HIV/AIDS question!!!? |
Okay, I've checked online and stuff, but most of what i find in regards to this specifically is only "it varies per age and person." Which doesn't help. HIV can be detected after the person has developed antibodies to the virus. In a way, antibodies are markers for the diseases that your body has fought against. This mechanism occurs anywhere from 3 weeks to a few months after the person has contracted HIV. I am not really sure, I think if the person has a really strong immune system, it will not be full blown AIds, But I think itreally just depends on how the person's body handles it. It does depend on the age and health of the person. It could be AIDS or it could remain as HIV. It would depend on the progression of the illness. Many people live for a very long time with HIV and never move on to having full blown AIDS. It all depends on their immune system and what they're succeptable to around them. Im not sure but I do know people can have HIV and not even get AIDS at all. I hate to say this, but it really does depend on your body. They measure the cells to tell you if it's full blown AIDS or HIV+advanced symptoms. The 10 year thing is just an estimated time that is matures in the body. Only your doctor can tell you how far it is along by your bloodwork. HIV positive means you have the virus that causes AIDS the scenario is extremelly unlikely, however if someone got infected, in ten tears there would be infections showing, like pneumonia or other oportunistic infections. Although possible, it is very unlikely, remember also that being expossed does not mean being infected. My advise would be if it is you or a friend, go to a doctor and have yourself or your friend checked, Knowing will give you peace of mind and if the very unlikely scenario happens then you can beggin a drug program to help you live a healthy life. As for it, would it be full blown, it could be, but it depends on your inmune system. It all depends on the T cell count. If there are 200 or less than it's AIDS. This, I am for sure. The length of time you've had it dosen't matter. |
