My fears

[davidblaine]

I realize that most of my worries are anxiety driven and it is only now i'm regaining control of my life. I'm seeing a counsellor and on some meds. Thanks to teak, Dobber, Brian and many more.

I got a question, at what point if someone is infected with HIV does weight loss start to happen, is it ARS or after and for how long?

Thanks all

It is one of the very uncommon symptoms or ARS.  Then it can occur down the road, ie. a few to several years.  i suspect that it does not affect some people at all until full blown aids.

Hmm... So if someone where to have weight loss a few months after possible exposure..

that rules it out as ARS cos its too far? since ars occurs a few days/weeks after incidents

and it rules it out as HIV cos u said that occurs years later at full blown AIDS stage?

you wont get any answers here David, you know that.

Have you ever stopped and thought that your symptoms are due to anxiety? Weight loss is caused to hyper stress. Something you've been experiencing as long as I've been on this forum

I guarantee you that after a few weeks of therapy your symptoms will resolve themselves:)
