Thyroid Tests and HIV

Does anyone know if a thyroid test will show dysfunctions in the immune system? I sincerely don't think so, but wanted to ask as someone is telling me it does. I think they are very misinformed.

You are off the hook. I see your point, but there are better ways to get answers than your "jump to conclusions" assaults. A simple "hey, what does this have to do with HIV?" would have been much better than your rude prowess. And I never called you dude or man, used "man" as a expletive.

Please, leave me be, you are just mean by nature, apparently.

FIRST OFF "DUDE"...I AM NOT A MAN.

SECONDLY...AT NO POINT IN YOUR ORIGINAL POST DID YOU MENTION ANYTHING ABOUT HIV.  THERE ARE MANY THINGS, OTHER THAN HIV, THAT INVOLVE DYSFUNCTIONS OF THE IMMUNE SYSTEM.

NOW GO BACK AND RE-READ YOUR ORIGINAL POST.

Good lord, what did I ever do to you? I am asking because it deals with a prevention subject? I have a discussion with someone who believes that because she gets checked up on a thyroid that she is being tested for HIV. I certainly don't think this is the case, but this topic could be of value to the forum and prevention if it's discussed. I am not posting because I am questioning a negative result or a no risk situation. Just a question about testing.

Man, take a step back will ya? Pushing people away from this forum for legitimate questions will ultimately lead to the failure of any information it has to offer. And I do not post excessively, have no idea where you are coming off like that.
