Symptoms...
*fever
*headache
*pain in the limbs
*sore throat
*swollen lymph nodes
*fatigue
*loss of appetite
*diarrhea
*skin rash
Those early HIV symptoms occur within the first weeks after the infection with HIV took place. In this stage though the HIV antibody test is ineffective because the infected person's immune system hasn't developed any antibodies to the virus yet. It usually takes about 3 months until antibodies are detectable.
If you have these symptoms and yours sexually active or share needles you should go get tested ASAP.
of course these could be the symptoms of something else but its safer to know your status.

Whats The Scenario?
I would really appreciate some feedback from people. I haven't been in most or any of the situations that alot of you have so If you have something to share please do so. Communication is one of the keys to ending this epidemic. Many are to scared or don't know how to communicate and that does nothing but make things worst. If you would like to share something confidentially do so & I swear to keep it to myself. If you have an issue regarding HIV/AIDS I am also hear to just talk. My goal is to help and if I only do that with one person I succeeded. Join the fight!
Just do it!
If I have to write this everyday I will.
Protecting yourself from HIV/AIDS is so simple.
Get tested!!
Wear Condoms !!
Communicate w/ your partners!!
Don't share needles!!
This isn't a game, its your life!

Saving A life Is SO simple!
You may not realize it, but just by having protected sex you can help to save a life. There are so many excuses but none are good enough when it comes to your safety. If you really love someone, use a condom. There isn't enough trust in the world that should allow you to disrespect your body like many do. Don't be foolish. Protect Youself, Save a Life!
My Mission
On World AIDS Day I decided I would change my focus. I watched a documentary that shocked me so much that I completely changed me. I learned so much on AIDS & HIV and realized that it can affect anyone. This blog was not created to make anyone feel bad. I hope that whoever reads this decides also to do something about this silent killer. I am lucky enough to not be infected and I believe that everyone should be tested as soon as possible. Without proper testing, condoms, and honesty, our generation is at risk of exstinction. Please spread the word to everyone you know that there is something you can do to stop this epidemic.
