Can you live with HIV without medication?


Can you live with HIV without medication?

yeah you can all you need to do is always eat a balanced diet, in other words eat well and avoid thinking alot you will be amaized by how long one can live with HIV

I would be interested to know of legitimate references for this claim. Report It

it depends on your life style and health. If you are full blown AIDS not long with out meds. The Medication helps surpress the onset of Aids. Ask your Family doctor or go to a web site for more info..

However once your cd4 count starts to drop and gets below a certain level, then you are at risk for all sorts of infections...treatment then can be live sustaining

It depends upon your lifestyle, health of your body and immune system, and the virulence of the HIV strain. Some people progress from time of infection to AIDS much more rapidly than others. As mentioned, there are a multitude of viral and host factors at interplay that determine the severity and progression of the infection. On average, most people progress from time of infection to AIDS in about 8-10 years. However, there are some people who have been infected for 20+ years and they have not developed AIDS (these are called "long term non-progressors").

If you have HIV, eat healthly, exercise, enjoy life and see what happens! It may be possible to delay starting medications for a very long time.
