Question: Read my short story about HIV positive guy and tell me if it's possible or not.?
There was one this guy named James.. In December 1980 he tested for HIV and was negative.. Then sometime in 1981 he tested again and was HIV positive.. However, despite his health status he remained silent.. He began keeping healthy life style, jogged 5 times a week, went to bed early, ate healthy, and took immune system vitamins(often sold in Wal-Mart) but never took any meds from HIV.. James died of AIDS in 2000 at the age of 40..
Do you think it is really possible to survive within 19 years living with that kind of a disease and not taking any meds.?.?

Its difficult to say really.. The HIV virus affects people in different ways and will take a different amount of time to turn into full blown AIDS for different people.. Someone might have HIV for a couple of years before it turns into AIDS, someone else might have it for a much longer time before it turns into AIDS..
As for not taking the medications, they definitely help slow down the progression of the virus but personally i'm not entirely sure how effective they are.. It could be possibly that this occurred but without any proof its too difficult to know..Health Question & Answer
