Posted: Post subject: just took the test |

I just took a home test yesterday and boy am I scared s---less. I'm testing because of some strange medical things that have been happening to me for the past few months, recently I looked up the symptoms and HIV seems to pop up all the time. Since I've realized this, I cant sleep, eat, all I seem to think about is my own mortality. I'm a mother of two and cant imagine having to tell my kids I have a disease that has no cure and will shorten my life span. I cried so hard Sunday that my face was swollen for a full day after.
I've been on all kinds of sites, reading blogs, getting info and I have to say I feel so much compassion for anyone going through this. The lack of understanding, being ostracized and judged must be hard. Regardless of my status I will never again look at this subject in the same light.

`Anybody else who reads her post please keep in mind that times and meds have changed. My doctor tells me I will die of old age. I also have a friend who has been infected since '81, when AID'swas called GRID. Get the test, take the meds, play safe. Have a good life.
