I'm aware that I came here in October, however my experience was protected, and was advised as a no risk situation, I haven't tested because of the information I read about and advice I was given from the site, I'm just curious as to when weight loss would come into affect with the disease, because I have lost a little weight over the course of the month and want to know if it is a cause for concern, that is all.
