Retrovirus

Take it easy man. Isn't the end of the world. Life is still sweet.

dude I am right there with you ( I may have just got excepted for a NIH study for rare and undiagnosed diseases hope they find it I too have oral thrush. except mine does not respond to meds. You ever hear of ICL here is some info on it

Non-HIV AIDS

Idiopathic CD4+ T-lymphocytopenia, or ICL, is an immunodeficiency syndrome in which human immunodeficiency virus, or HIV, cannot be detected. Because HIV is the causative agent of acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS), ICL can be referred to as Non-HIV AIDS. As in AIDS patients, Non-HIV AIDS patients exhibit reduced numbers of CD4+ T-lymphocytes, and many Non-HIV AIDS patients have developed the opportunistic infections or otherwise rare cancers associated with AIDS.

Non-HIV AIDS patients may comprise perhaps one percent of all AIDS patients. While the majority of Non-HIV AIDS patients do not belong to any of the risk groups such as blood transfusion recipients, male homosexuals, and intravenous drug abusers in which AIDS was first identified, some Non-HIV AIDS patients do belong to these groups. This suggests that Non-HIV AIDS may also be transmissible.

Research conducted at Tulane University Medical Center suggests that Non-HIV AIDS is associated with a retroviral particle called Human Intracisternal A-Type Particle-Type II, or HIAP-II. Antibodies to this particle have been found in a high percentage of patients with Non-HIV AIDS. Tulane has patented HIAP-II, and Autoimmune Technologies is licensing HIAP-II technology in order to develop screening and diagnostic tests and therapies for Non-HIV AIDS and to study the possibility of generating vaccines against Non-HIV AIDS, autoimmune disease, and AIDS.

wow...still at it!!!!!

I see Chris you haven't sought professional mental help. You don't have HIV. MOVE ON.

how did you get on?? any news?? x

I' am not sure if I am at the right place. But couldn't find another one to share my nightmare which has started almost two years ago. After sexual intercourse I started to have strange symptoms: body temp raised to 37,5 at least (it is two years now that my body temp is rarely below 37,3 degrees), I had unbelievable sweats during nights and days – I was completely wet, I had to change my clothes few times a day, my pyjama  few times a night. I got white cover on my tongue – candida albicans was diagnosed, have afts quite often. I got sore throat – I couldn’t heal it by anything, no medicines no sprays worked and it lasted for almost half a year. I got problems with my eyes – can see lot of annoying small objects rolling ahead of my eyes, could not stand day light. I got kind of dementia which caused me to forget things like my car’s whereabouts, PINs to my bank cards etc, my brain is fogged.  I am tired, exchusted and sleepy all the time even after  10 hours of sleep.  I have developed chronic sinusitis - still persists although I had operation. My life became a nightmare.

At the beginning  I was sure it is HIV virus but the medical tests didn’t prove it. The last HIV antibody test I made two and a half years after that unlucky intercourse.  It came out negative as several  tests before.
I was tested for all kind of common diseases for several time (like hepatitis a,b,c,d; EBV, CMV, Chlamydia, full STD’s panel, and many many others). I haven’t found anything.

I was diagnosed with: "Patient suffers from ME/CFS (WHO 93.3); however it is clear that there
is a chronic persisting infection of unknown origin"

Can anyone hel somehow or can share own experience with sth similar?
