Living with HIV in the Philippines: Act Now!

We have assisted a lot of newly diagnosed HIV positive lately with opportunistic infection presentations. The Red Ribbon Care Management Program still provides outstanding care however, it becomes harder as the clients are burdened with financial and risky health issues.

The reason for this blog post is to tell the readers the FACTS and to encourage all our readers to please ACT NOW before more health complications arise that will lead to more financial burden for both the patient and his family.

ACT NOW and GET TESTED:

1. If have had unprotected sex!
2. If you are getting sickly.
3. If you have drug abuse history especially with needle sharing
4. If you have other STD's

If Diagnosed with HIV, DON'T WAIT ANYMORE!

1. Go to the HIV/AIDS Treatment Hub fast if you are diagnosed with HIV
2. Don't think that you'll be ok without getting a consultation with an HIV doctor.
3. Don't believe that supplements will help you even without guidance from an HIV doctor.
4. Don't wait for miracles to happen without going to the HIV/AIDS Treatment Hub.

Please don't wait. HIV Treatment is FREE in all HIV/AIDS Hubs but treatment of opportunistic infections is not!

The COST of TREATMENT is OVERWHELMING!

1. Don't be like me. I spent almost P500, 000 because I was late diagnosed with HIV and I already had Pneumocystis Pneumonia (PCP) and bibasal pneumonia when I was diagnosed.
2. Untreated pneumonia can confine one in a government hospital that would cost a minimum of P30,000
3. Untreated Pulmonary Tuberculosis with HIV aside from the financial expenses, requires longer treatment.
4. HPV (Anal warts) is recurrent and is costly especially if they are already numerous and big in size.
5. CM Retinitis with HIV requires a VERY EXPENSIVE treatment and lab testing.
6. Dermatologic Conditions and HIV maybe costly and treatment is longer.
7. Oral Thrush and HIV may require expensive treatment.
8. Other Conditions may be debilitating.

So what are you waiting for? Are you still scared to be tested? Are you worried about the expenses when the fact is that you won't spend a lot if you are not feeling anything yet?

Please don't wait. If you think you have been exposed, please ACT IMMEDIATELY! If you get tested when you already have infections brought about by weaked immune system caused by HIV, treatment may be longer and VERY COSTLY. If you are worried about your family and friends, then you will make them worry more when you are already bedridden and very sick because of HIV related infections. Don't burden yourself. Don't burden your family!

So don't think anymore. Get tested as early as now, when everything is still FREE!
