Hi bandit.
Thank you for your email. Thank you for sharing your concern with me and my readers.
I am proud of you for taking the test. Now you have control over your health. Although it is hard to accept it at first, you have to embrace it as soon as possible so you can focus on the things that you have to do. You are a medical student and you know that early intervention is the key to a successful treatment. You also know that nobody dies of AIDS if there is an early intervention so you need to be proactive and get consultation with an ID doctor or go to any HIV/AIDS treatment hubs ASAP so you will know your state of immune system and if prescribed, take the ARV's. They are free from all the hubs.
I know it would be hard to tell your family but it is really better to tell somebody who can understand you. In my case, the second day I found out that I was HIV positive and have AIDS, I already told my siblings so I don't have to worry about them anymore and for me to focus on my health. You too can tell somebody when you are ready, when you yourself have accepted it. You can start with your closest sibling or your closest friend. Trust me it is easier to deal with it if somebody knows and you are not pretending anymore.
For now, you can contact me at 0916-286-2066 if you want to talk. Also, you can join The Red Ribbon group in Facebook. It is an online support group. It is a private group so just add me first (pozziepinoy) and request for permission to join the group.
I hope I was able to answer your concerns. Feel free to email me again if you have other questions.
Stay healthy,
Pozziepinoy
