HIV Symptoms And Info

HIV Symptoms And Info

The major problem with relying on symptoms to detect or AIDS is that sometimes these conditions show no sign of their presence at all. You may feel and look great and still be positive. Now that is a scary fact. And the reality is, you may be passing on the disease to others without even realizing it.

Now to avoid the guilt of this and to take action on your own condition, if you have even the smallest suspicion that you are suffering from HIV, get a test done to confirm it. That is the only way you will ever know.

However, some people do exhibit various symptoms and it is important to note them as well. Perhaps you do not suspect that you have contracted at all and are not even thinking about that possibility. That is when being aware of the symptoms to look out for can come in handy.

Now, without further adieu, here are the major symptoms those with complain of:

-A fever that you cannot seem to get rid of
-Persistent diarrhea
-Headache
-Swollen glands in the neck, groin and/or armpits
-White spots on the tongue, throat or in the mouth
-Night sweats
-Dry cough
-Fatigue
-Blotches on the skin or under it. Can also appear in the mouth, nose or on the eyelids. They are usually purple, brown or red in color.

And some of the more serious symptoms include:

-Depression
-Pneumonia
-Weight loss
-Memory loss

As the virus takes over the white blood cells, the virus then causes AIDS.

AIDS occurs when the immune system has been severely weakened by the virus and you either develop something called an opportunistic infection, or an infection that occurs because your immune system is so “down,” or your lymphocyte count is below 200.

Some symptoms associated with an opportunistic infection caused by the progression of the virus include:

-Severe chills
-Severe night sweats
-Persistent fever of over 100 F
-Blurred vision
-Rapid weight loss
-Shortness of breath
-Severe diarrhea
-Lesions in the mouth, on the tongue or in the throat that will not go away.

The development of cancer is also more likely in those with advanced disease.

The most common killer of those with advanced or AIDS is Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia or PCP—an opportunistic infection and type of pneumonia that develops exclusively in AIDS patients.

Contracting or AIDS used to be a death sentence. And while there is still no cure, treatments have improved vastly. The AIDS drug “cocktail” has helped many people live longer and happier lives than ever thought possible with the disease. Plus, new medical treatments are helpful prolong the period of time before turns into AIDS. These are all great developments and who knows what the future will bring?

HDL, the good cholesterol, may not be so good after all
A new genetic study suggests that high-density lipoprotein, the so-called good cholesterol commonly known as HDL, may not actually be as good for us as physicians previously thought. A study of more than 100,000 people found that those with genes that promote production of higher-than-normal levels of HDL do not have a lower risk of having a heart attack, a finding that has surprised researchers immensely. The results could have major implications for pharmaceutical manufacturers, who have been attempting to develop drugs that will raise HDL in the hopes of preventing heart attacks in people at higher risk.<img width='1' height='1' src='http://ChicagoTribune.feedsportal.com/c/34253/f/622900/s/1f7c480e/mf.gif' border='0'/><div class='mf-viral'><table border='0'><tr><td valign='middle'><a href="http://share.feedsportal.com/viral/sendEmail.cfm?lang=en&title=HDL%2C+the+good+cholesterol%2C+may+not+be+so+good+after+all&link=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.chicagotribune.com%2Fhealth%2Fla-sci-sn-hdl-good-cholesterol-20120518%2C0%2C3105553.story%3Ftrack%3Drss" target="_blank"><img src="http://res3.feedsportal.com/images/emailthis2.gif" border="0" /></a></td><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/bookmark.cfm?title=HDL%2C+the+good+cholesterol%2C+may+not+be+so+good+after+all&link=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.chicagotribune.com%2Fhealth%2Fla-sci-sn-hdl-good-cholesterol-20120518%2C0%2C3105553.story%3Ftrack%3Drss" target="_blank"><img src="http://res3.feedsportal.com/images/bookmark.gif" border="0" /></a></td></tr></table></div><br/><br/><a href="http://da.feedsportal.com/r/134204390613/u/49/f/622900/c/34253/s/1f7c480e/a2.htm"><img src="http://da.feedsportal.com/r/134204390613/u/49/f/622900/c/34253/s/1f7c480e/a2.img" border="0"/></a><img width="1" height="1" src="http://pi.feedsportal.com/r/134204390613/u/49/f/622900/c/34253/s/1f7c480e/a2t.img" border="0"/>
Fructose makes rats dumber. What sugars should we avoid?
Rats fed fructose-laced drinking water for six weeks performed more slowly in a maze-navigating task, UCLA researchers have found. (Read this L.A. Times opinion article .)

U.S. asthma rates at all-time high, CDC says
The proportion of Americans with asthma increased from 7.3% in 2001 to 8.4% in 2010, marking the highest level ever, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention said Tuesday. In 2010, an estimated 18.7 million adults and 7 million children had the disease -- one in every 12 Americans. Overall, about 29.1 million adults have been diagnosed with asthma at some point in their lives, but many of those were misdiagnosed or have apparently recovered, leading to the current figure of 18.7 million.<img width='1' height='1' src='http://ChicagoTribune.feedsportal.com/c/34253/f/622900/s/1f62bd7b/mf.gif' border='0'/><div class='mf-viral'><table border='0'><tr><td valign='middle'><a href="http://share.feedsportal.com/viral/sendEmail.cfm?lang=en&title=U.S.+asthma+rates+at+all-time+high%2C+CDC+says&link=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.chicagotribune.com%2Fhealth%2Fla-sci-sn-asthma-prevalence-20120515%2C0%2C1500539.story%3Ftrack%3Drss" target="_blank"><img src="http://res3.feedsportal.com/images/emailthis2.gif" border="0" /></a></td><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/bookmark.cfm?title=U.S.+asthma+rates+at+all-time+high%2C+CDC+says&link=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.chicagotribune.com%2Fhealth%2Fla-sci-sn-asthma-prevalence-20120515%2C0%2C1500539.story%3Ftrack%3Drss" target="_blank"><img src="http://res3.feedsportal.com/images/bookmark.gif" border="0" /></a></td></tr></table></div><br/><br/><a href="http://da.feedsportal.com/r/134204501752/u/49/f/622900/c/34253/s/1f62bd7b/a2.htm"><img src="http://da.feedsportal.com/r/134204501752/u/49/f/622900/c/34253/s/1f62bd7b/a2.img" border="0"/></a><img width="1" height="1" src="http://pi.feedsportal.com/r/134204501752/u/49/f/622900/c/34253/s/1f62bd7b/a2t.img" border="0"/>
Smoking pot for multiple sclerosis? Study finds it helps
Smoking marijuana to relieve the symptoms of multiple sclerosis is a practice with a fair number of adherents, though it has not been subject to rigorous testing. A new study finds that puffing weed does have a rapid and measurable effect on MS patients' muscle spasticity and on their perception of pain. But subjects who smoked pot were not able to walk any faster and -- surprise! -- they felt higher than members of the control group who smoked marijuana stripped of THC.<img width='1' height='1' src='http://ChicagoTribune.feedsportal.com/c/34253/f/622900/s/1f5a458b/mf.gif' border='0'/><div class='mf-viral'><table border='0'><tr><td valign='middle'><a href="http://share.feedsportal.com/viral/sendEmail.cfm?lang=en&title=Smoking+pot+for+multiple+sclerosis%3F+Study+finds+it+helps&link=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.chicagotribune.com%2Fhealth%2Fla-heb-marijuana-multiple-sclerosis-20120514%2C0%2C308297.story%3Ftrack%3Drss" target="_blank"><img src="http://res3.feedsportal.com/images/emailthis2.gif" border="0" /></a></td><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/bookmark.cfm?title=Smoking+pot+for+multiple+sclerosis%3F+Study+finds+it+helps&link=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.chicagotribune.com%2Fhealth%2Fla-heb-marijuana-multiple-sclerosis-20120514%2C0%2C308297.story%3Ftrack%3Drss" target="_blank"><img src="http://res3.feedsportal.com/images/bookmark.gif" border="0" /></a></td></tr></table></div><br/><br/><a href="http://da.feedsportal.com/r/134204221522/u/49/f/622900/c/34253/s/1f5a458b/a2.htm"><img src="http://da.feedsportal.com/r/134204221522/u/49/f/622900/c/34253/s/1f5a458b/a2.img" border="0"/></a><img width="1" height="1" src="http://pi.feedsportal.com/r/134204221522/u/49/f/622900/c/34253/s/1f5a458b/a2t.img" border="0"/>

Sleepwalking: More common than you might think
Ever sleep-walked? I have. At the age of 12, I woke up to find myself in a bedroom where a visiting kid was staying over, my head gently resting on the foot of the bed. I got up, snuck back to my bedroom and kept it to myself.

Kids' ER visits resulting from battery exposure have doubled in two decades
Emergency room visits resulting from children swallowing batteries or sticking them into other orifices doubled between 1990 and 2009, researchers said Monday. There were an estimated 5,525 ER visits caused by batteries in 2009, with the bulk of them occurring in children under the age of 5, according to a team from Nationwide Children's Hospital in Columbus, Ohio. Most of them were caused by button batteries, the small, disc-like batteries found in many games and other electronic devices.<img width='1' height='1' src='http://ChicagoTribune.feedsportal.com/c/34253/f/622900/s/1f58932f/mf.gif' border='0'/><div class='mf-viral'><table border='0'><tr><td valign='middle'><a href="http://share.feedsportal.com/viral/sendEmail.cfm?lang=en&title=Kids%27+ER+visits+resulting+from+battery+exposure+have+doubled+in+two+decades&link=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.chicagotribune.com%2Fhealth%2Fla-sci-sn-batteries-children-20120514%2C0%2C7382618.story%3Ftrack%3Drss" target="_blank"><img src="http://res3.feedsportal.com/images/emailthis2.gif" border="0" /></a></td><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/bookmark.cfm?title=Kids%27+ER+visits+resulting+from+battery+exposure+have+doubled+in+two+decades&link=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.chicagotribune.com%2Fhealth%2Fla-sci-sn-batteries-children-20120514%2C0%2C7382618.story%3Ftrack%3Drss" target="_blank"><img src="http://res3.feedsportal.com/images/bookmark.gif" border="0" /></a></td></tr></table></div><br/><br/><a href="http://da.feedsportal.com/r/134204447737/u/49/f/622900/c/34253/s/1f58932f/a2.htm"><img src="http://da.feedsportal.com/r/134204447737/u/49/f/622900/c/34253/s/1f58932f/a2.img" border="0"/></a><img width="1" height="1" src="http://pi.feedsportal.com/r/134204447737/u/49/f/622900/c/34253/s/1f58932f/a2t.img" border="0"/>
My kid's pacifier could hurt him. It's worrying -- to a point.
Some of the longest-lasting relics of my kids&rsquo; infancies and toddlerhoods have been their pacifiers and their sippy cups.  Even now, with the boys 3 and 5 years old, we devote two drawers in our kitchen to a collection of jumbled lids, valves and cups (many featuring slowly fading portraits of Lightning McQueen.)  The binkies, which my younger son uses at bedtime and on long airplane trips, live in a banged-up plastic container perched on a high cabinet shelf. <img width='1' height='1' src='http://ChicagoTribune.feedsportal.com/c/34253/f/622900/s/1f574948/mf.gif' border='0'/><div class='mf-viral'><table border='0'><tr><td valign='middle'><a href="http://share.feedsportal.com/viral/sendEmail.cfm?lang=en&title=My+kid%27s+pacifier+could+hurt+him.++It%27s+worrying+--+to+a+point.&link=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.chicagotribune.com%2Fhealth%2Fla-heb-bottles-pacifiers-sippy-cups-injuries-20120514%2C0%2C3476896.story%3Ftrack%3Drss" target="_blank"><img src="http://res3.feedsportal.com/images/emailthis2.gif" border="0" /></a></td><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/bookmark.cfm?title=My+kid%27s+pacifier+could+hurt+him.++It%27s+worrying+--+to+a+point.&link=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.chicagotribune.com%2Fhealth%2Fla-heb-bottles-pacifiers-sippy-cups-injuries-20120514%2C0%2C3476896.story%3Ftrack%3Drss" target="_blank"><img src="http://res3.feedsportal.com/images/bookmark.gif" border="0" /></a></td></tr></table></div><br/><br/><a href="http://da.feedsportal.com/r/134204478968/u/49/f/622900/c/34253/s/1f574948/a2.htm"><img src="http://da.feedsportal.com/r/134204478968/u/49/f/622900/c/34253/s/1f574948/a2.img" border="0"/></a><img width="1" height="1" src="http://pi.feedsportal.com/r/134204478968/u/49/f/622900/c/34253/s/1f574948/a2t.img" border="0"/>

Weight-loss drug Lorcaserin: Definite maybe in 2nd run at FDA's OK
The proposed weight-loss drug Lorcaserin, rebuffed in its bid for Food and Drug Administration approval last October, on Thursday won a recommendation of approval from the agency's advisory committee, a major step toward winning the FDA's go-ahead to enter the U.S. market. If the agency follows the advice of the panel of independent experts--which is common but not routine-- Lorcaserin would become the first new prescription weight-loss drug to go on the U.S. market since Orlistat (now marketed over-the-counter as Alli) was approved in 1999.<img width='1' height='1' src='http://ChicagoTribune.feedsportal.com/c/34253/f/622900/s/1f3e6660/mf.gif' border='0'/><div class='mf-viral'><table border='0'><tr><td valign='middle'><a href="http://share.feedsportal.com/viral/sendEmail.cfm?lang=en&title=Weight-loss+drug+Lorcaserin%3A+Definite+maybe+in+2nd+run+at+FDA%27s+OK&link=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.chicagotribune.com%2Fhealth%2Fla-heb--weight-loss-drug-lorcaserin-20120510%2C0%2C2735366.story%3Ftrack%3Drss" target="_blank"><img src="http://res3.feedsportal.com/images/emailthis2.gif" border="0" /></a></td><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/bookmark.cfm?title=Weight-loss+drug+Lorcaserin%3A+Definite+maybe+in+2nd+run+at+FDA%27s+OK&link=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.chicagotribune.com%2Fhealth%2Fla-heb--weight-loss-drug-lorcaserin-20120510%2C0%2C2735366.story%3Ftrack%3Drss" target="_blank"><img src="http://res3.feedsportal.com/images/bookmark.gif" border="0" /></a></td></tr></table></div><br/><br/><a href="http://da.feedsportal.com/r/134204361805/u/49/f/622900/c/34253/s/1f3e6660/a2.htm"><img src="http://da.feedsportal.com/r/134204361805/u/49/f/622900/c/34253/s/1f3e6660/a2.img" border="0"/></a><img width="1" height="1" src="http://pi.feedsportal.com/r/134204361805/u/49/f/622900/c/34253/s/1f3e6660/a2t.img" border="0"/>

Drug delays progression in myeloma, but is it worth the cost?
Lenalidomide, sold under the tradename Revlimid, significantly improves progression-free survival in patients with myeloma, according to three clinical trials published Wednesday. All three trials were so successful that the results were unblinded early and, in two of the three trials, patients receiving the placebo were switched to the active drug. But researchers also found that the drug doubled the risk of a second, independent cancer occurring, and it is not yet clear whether the drug produces an increase in overall survival. Moreover, the drug is quite expensive, more than $163,000 for a year of treatment, and there was no data indicating whether quality of life improved enough to justify the cost.<img width='1' height='1' src='http://ChicagoTribune.feedsportal.com/c/34253/f/622900/s/1f305215/mf.gif' border='0'/><div class='mf-viral'><table border='0'><tr><td valign='middle'><a href="http://share.feedsportal.com/viral/sendEmail.cfm?lang=en&title=Drug+delays+progression+in+myeloma%2C+but+is+it+worth+the+cost%3F&link=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.chicagotribune.com%2Fhealth%2Fla-heb-lenalidomide-myeloma-20120509%2C0%2C2657211.story%3Ftrack%3Drss" target="_blank"><img src="http://res3.feedsportal.com/images/emailthis2.gif" border="0" /></a></td><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/bookmark.cfm?title=Drug+delays+progression+in+myeloma%2C+but+is+it+worth+the+cost%3F&link=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.chicagotribune.com%2Fhealth%2Fla-heb-lenalidomide-myeloma-20120509%2C0%2C2657211.story%3Ftrack%3Drss" target="_blank"><img src="http://res3.feedsportal.com/images/bookmark.gif" border="0" /></a></td></tr></table></div><br/><br/><a href="http://da.feedsportal.com/r/134204031879/u/49/f/622900/c/34253/s/1f305215/a2.htm"><img src="http://da.feedsportal.com/r/134204031879/u/49/f/622900/c/34253/s/1f305215/a2.img" border="0"/></a><img width="1" height="1" src="http://pi.feedsportal.com/r/134204031879/u/49/f/622900/c/34253/s/1f305215/a2t.img" border="0"/>
1 of 6 cancer deaths worldwide caused by preventable infections
One in every six cancer deaths worldwide is caused by preventable infections, a total of 1.5 million deaths yearly that could be halted by widespread vaccination programs, researchers reported Wednesday. Since 1990, that number has grown by about half a million, suggesting that vaccination programs are losing ground in the battle rather than gaining it.  The vast majority of the cases are caused by three viruses and a bacterium, which are the leading causes of gastric, liver and cervical cancers. Cervical cancers account for about half of the infection-related cancers in women, while liver and gastric cancers account for about 80% of those in men.<img width='1' height='1' src='http://ChicagoTribune.feedsportal.com/c/34253/f/622900/s/1f2ebed6/mf.gif' border='0'/><div class='mf-viral'><table border='0'><tr><td valign='middle'><a href="http://share.feedsportal.com/viral/sendEmail.cfm?lang=en&title=1+of+6+cancer+deaths+worldwide+caused+by+preventable+infections&link=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.chicagotribune.com%2Fhealth%2Fla-heb-infections-cancer-20120509%2C0%2C6630689.story%3Ftrack%3Drss" target="_blank"><img src="http://res3.feedsportal.com/images/emailthis2.gif" border="0" /></a></td><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/bookmark.cfm?title=1+of+6+cancer+deaths+worldwide+caused+by+preventable+infections&link=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.chicagotribune.com%2Fhealth%2Fla-heb-infections-cancer-20120509%2C0%2C6630689.story%3Ftrack%3Drss" target="_blank"><img src="http://res3.feedsportal.com/images/bookmark.gif" border="0" /></a></td></tr></table></div><br/><br/><a href="http://da.feedsportal.com/r/133515424980/u/49/f/622900/c/34253/s/1f2ebed6/a2.htm"><img src="http://da.feedsportal.com/r/133515424980/u/49/f/622900/c/34253/s/1f2ebed6/a2.img" border="0"/></a><img width="1" height="1" src="http://pi.feedsportal.com/r/133515424980/u/49/f/622900/c/34253/s/1f2ebed6/a2t.img" border="0"/>
Contaminated reusable grocery bag causes gastric illness outbreak
A reusable grocery bag left in a hotel bathroom caused an outbreak of norovirus-induced diarrhea and nausea that struck nine of 13 members of a girls' soccer team in October, Oregon researchers reported Wednesday. The outbreak also affected many family members after the team returned home.<img width='1' height='1' src='http://ChicagoTribune.feedsportal.com/c/34253/f/622900/s/1f2e300a/mf.gif' border='0'/><div class='mf-viral'><table border='0'><tr><td valign='middle'><a href="http://share.feedsportal.com/viral/sendEmail.cfm?lang=en&title=Contaminated+reusable+grocery+bag+causes+gastric+illness+outbreak&link=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.chicagotribune.com%2Fhealth%2Fla-heb-grocery-bag-diarrhea-20120509%2C0%2C676133.story%3Ftrack%3Drss" target="_blank"><img src="http://res3.feedsportal.com/images/emailthis2.gif" border="0" /></a></td><td valign='middle'><a href="http://res.feedsportal.com/viral/bookmark.cfm?title=Contaminated+reusable+grocery+bag+causes+gastric+illness+outbreak&link=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.chicagotribune.com%2Fhealth%2Fla-heb-grocery-bag-diarrhea-20120509%2C0%2C676133.story%3Ftrack%3Drss" target="_blank"><img src="http://res3.feedsportal.com/images/bookmark.gif" border="0" /></a></td></tr></table></div><br/><br/><a href="http://da.feedsportal.com/r/133515394191/u/49/f/622900/c/34253/s/1f2e300a/a2.htm"><img src="http://da.feedsportal.com/r/133515394191/u/49/f/622900/c/34253/s/1f2e300a/a2.img" border="0"/></a><img width="1" height="1" src="http://pi.feedsportal.com/r/133515394191/u/49/f/622900/c/34253/s/1f2e300a/a2t.img" border="0"/>
