STDs,hiv how long can i live with hiv medication?
It is unknown how long a person can live with HIV utilizing the medication (antiretroviral therapies and prophylaxis treatments). We believe with the many possible combinations of medications (reverse transcriptase inhibitor and the protease inhibitors) it could be many years. The better you take care of yourself, the greater your chances of a long healthy life. Some things to complement the western medications for you to consider include: Acupuncture Proper nutrition for person living with HIV Stay away from drugs (ilicit), alcohol, and tobacco Reducing stress Exercise Body work (therapeutic massage) Yoga Meditation Regular visits to your physician Remember there are some individuals who are HIV+ who have been living with the virus since the 1980’s. Take care of yourself mentally, physically and spiritually.
