Even with the use of modern treatments etc. what adverse impacts will having hiv likely have on my life? is it possible to avoid or eliminate these?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
HIV Treatment: That is a very broad question and one asking us to predict. Your liver, your heart and your bones are going to age more rapidly with hiv. Being on medications as soon as possible to suppress the virus and keep damage at bay is vital. Getting and keeping an expert in your corner is vital so that all of the risks are being monitored over time is vital.
