I Have Lupus And Was Exposed to Hiv/aids Posted: 07-07-04 16:51pm
I have lupus and recently may have been
exposed to the aids virus ... Tell me
if you can since I have too many t cells
and aids depletes of your will this most
likely make me active with lupus again.
This is scary and I was wondering is there
any new drug therapy with aids? Thanks
for your time

Lupus Risk Factors Posted: 07-29-04 11:47am
You will have to wait a few months and see
if you contracted hiv/aids.
Most people do not become infected from a
single exposure to hiv/aids.
It's like playing russian roulette, you
can engage in sex many times with a
carrier before actually getting blown
away. Lupus does not make you more prone
to become infected from one expozure.
Because your immune system is already
messed up by the lupus, you will require a
different drug cocktail, if you ever
actually catch it.
