JS,

Both are my all time fav songs!

Take care,

my mate went to pattaya and slept with 37 girls .,, i told him he was crazy!.

im sure there is more in life than sleeping around.

37 girls ? THAT"S IT ? Ehehhe

Have you heard any news from him since?

Encourage him to get a blood work. Hope he's fine

JS,

Your post made me realise that my decision to be a GTG is correct and prompt in this world.

Also, a full blood work before sexual intercourse for 3 months is nescessary for every couple, esp. potential marriage couples. Sadly most Thai women don't realise this and they don't get the info. So many of them ended up contracting HIV from their husbands.

Pigland, I m not at all insulted by your comments, number one reason being that you arent being insensitive on purpose. I think you are just plain ignorant...and it is insulting to anyone living with this disease.

 

I really hope you never get this disease...because I really believe you couldnt mentally cope with that kind of news. Your posting would suggest that.

:thumbup:

What can I say, Chris? You've made your point so well I would have just give you

THey are now have a technology where they make an infected sperm uninfected. Even in Thailand we have that technology. No problem to have babies anymore.

Getting tested is a responsible thing to do to make proper adjustment for oneself. People are different thus they get differrent symptoms in various levels. So if your CD4 is lower you need to act fast. See ?

Goodness me!!! you and my wife should get together, I'm sure you'd enjoy the gossip and scandal mongering, clearly you share a genetic strain which baffles me.

There are always two sides of the coin. I just want to dig a little bit more about the other side.

Oh, BTW, I just happened to see Elvis Prestley walking around Soi 7 last night. Ehehehe

JS,

THX for replying !

You're a keeper :thumbup: , ya know !

Do you have any younger brothers left for me?

Cheers !

Josh,

I'm sure you have heard about a conspiracy theory about HIV is not a cause of AIDS at all. But it is believed or made to believe for political reasons among health professionals just to get the reserch fund flowing in, etc.

I would love to read about it. Can you point me to the right direction ie. any source on the internet?

What is your view on this matter?

Maybe I should start a new thread.

Hi guys,

hadnt been posting much this week. I ve had really devastating news.

 

Dont even know if I should post it,but I thought if it warns even one person about the dangers out there. But more importantly to prevent someone having to go through what I ve been through this last 2 weeks.

 

My blood test showed the HIV antibody. I m so sad and lost. But I m also focused and thinking postive and looking forward. Yes its been a shit. My biggest fear confirmed.

 

A couple of accidents where no use of condom due to bein out of my head and not known what I was doin...I thought about the odds, and thought I would be ok...but I ve been unlucky.

 

My confirmation test comes back tomorrow. I know it will be positive. I know because after the exposure about 2 weeks later, I came down with the worst flu and sore throat, thrush, mouth ulcers for 17 days...I knew in my heart back then, but hadnt the courage to get tested, until now. 17months after. I havent consciously slept with anyone since...but my girlfriend will have to get tested...its all such a mess. I m in the UK shes in Thailand. Its just one problem after the other.

 

I m not so worried about the disease, I m lucky to come from a well enough off back ground...people are much more unlucky than me...with this virus.

 

But be careful out there. Subtype E is the strain that is 95% in Thailand and heterosexually passed. A Harvard uni study showed that this strain can get into your system through langherphan cells on your skin. It doesnt need to get directly into the blood. So be very careful. It only takes one or two slips and that could be that...

 

I would like to post still, but not feeling up to it at the minute. I have lots of support. I wont let this beat me easily. I m mentally strong and feel ok. I m just going to take real good care of myself with my diet. Theres also lots of hope out there about advances in using the body to fight this virus for everyone...if only Bush would step down and let the scientists get on with it...

 

so ve be careful once again. A few minutes of pleasure isnt worth this. Find yourself a nice girl and be happy with her...I m going to regret not doing that for ever,

cheers,

Chris.

I am deeply sorry to hear about your condition. You are very brave to share your presonal story among us here.

May I ask you something? During that 17 months you didn't have sex with your girlfriend at all, if I read your post right? If so, a big of applause !!!!( You said, "I knew in my heart back then, but hadnt the courage to get tested, until now. 17months after. I havent consciously slept with anyone since...but my girlfriend will have to get tested...its all such a mess.")

The sad thing after having read many pages of this thread is that NO ONE asked about your girfriend's test result. But maybe I'm female my first question is , "How is the girlfriend?".

I hope she is negative. If you don't mind sharing it with us.

As you might all realise tbat HIV/AIDS is spreading among women (females by their anatomy are infected easiler than men.)and housewives in Thailand in an alarming rate. That's why I am very worried about her. If she is infected, what whould she do? Will you take care of her too? (as you said you are quite well-off and can afford a good heath care.) If she was infected and you took care of her, you are a true gentleman. :thumbup:

I remember that about 15 years ago a Canadian medical doctor in Canada who was infected with HIV made a documentary film shown on TV about his last few months of his life. I didn't get to see it just heard someone talked about it. It would be great if someone in this condition would create a 'Blog' to share their thought and new perspective on things. But what you have done for us on this board are greatly appreciated already.

Good luck to you JS. My thoughts are with you and your girlfriend.

GTG

PS. To wait for 17 months to get the test was an awful time for you I think. But at least it has been tested.

Oh, I hope Khun Sanuk won't delete my post.
