If you are HIV negative and you can't abstain or you're a fan of Monday Night Raw, go to any HIV NGO in your area, claim that you are gay, and you'll get free access to PREP. Take it religiously while monitoring your kidney and liver health—you'll be safe. Stay safe!

What are you preaching. Abstaining by the power of salvation in Christ is the only way.

Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is a serious and life-threatening condition that affects millions worldwide. While it's a manageable condition with antiretroviral therapy (ART), early detection is crucial to prevent long-term damage and transmission to others. In this article, we'll explore the initial symptoms of HIV, which often go unnoticed or misdiagnosed.

The Early Symptoms

The first signs of HIV can appear within 2-4 weeks after exposure and may resemble a mild flu or viral infection. The common symptoms include:

- Fever
- Headache
- Chills and night sweats
- Swollen lymph nodes
- Rash
- Fatigue
- Muscle aches
- Sore throat
- Ulcers in the mouth, esophagus, anus, or genitals

It's important to note that not everyone will experience symptoms in the early stages of HIV infection. In some cases, people may remain asymptomatic for years, making regular testing essential for early detection.

Why Early Detection Matters

Detecting HIV early is vital for several reasons:

- Early treatment: Starting ART soon after diagnosis can significantly improve the quality of life and life expectancy.
- Preventing transmission: Knowing your status and taking medication as prescribed can significantly reduce the risk of transmitting HIV to others.
- Reducing complications: Early treatment can prevent long-term damage to the immune system, reducing the risk of opportunistic infections and cancers.

Getting Tested

If you suspect you've been exposed to HIV or are experiencing symptoms, get tested immediately. You can take a rapid test at a healthcare clinic, hospital, or testing center. The test involves a quick finger prick or oral swab, and results are usually available within minutes.

Conclusion

Recognizing the first signs of HIV is crucial for early detection and effective management. Don't ignore the symptoms or assume they'll go away. Take control of your health, and get tested today. Remember, knowledge is power, and early detection can make all the difference in living a healthy life with HIV.

All of these early symptoms are like malaria.
.. how does one really know?

Na wa ooo

Pile and constant evening erection is another symptoms.
Then also count the numbers of your teeth in your mouth, starting from the left side, to check if they are still complete (This is the fasted way to check if you are infected).

To be frank, HIV is not even a sickness to fear again,
Malaria, Diabetes, hypertities, High/very low blood pressure, Betting Addiction, Brokenness while owing huge debts are more dangerous than HIV.

Some ladies will happily prefer HIV to some Infections destroying their p*ssy partway to their Womb.

For Me I prefer a Nicki Minaj with HIV to an ugly flat breast and ass lady without HIV.

Clean your mouth

Ran this test twice at different occasions in the past and it felt good.

Bit of nerves at first but, there is a great feeling of peace after the results come out negative.

I urge all to go for it.

Stop giving unsavoury advices here and know that educated people are also on this forum. Stop promoting negative behavior. You don't need to claim you're gay to access PEP drug's it is free in all HIV center's,it is available at general hospitals,even private hospitals.

What they won't tell you is that HIV is now very rampart in the country. It's growing in Lagos. I have someone who works as a Nurse in a General Hospital in Lagos Mainland and the number of positive testing they are having for HIV is so much. So let's go for tests regularly and be very careful. Carry runs girl or olosho at your own risk. Abstinence is the best or stick to one partner, preferably the one you are married to. Stay safe!

You'll first discover you don't have money.
You then realise Tinubu is the president of Nigeria.
When u sleep, u have nightmares that he won the next general elections.
You wake up sweating again.

Then you now come to your senses that voting right, and Going for HIV testing, is the right way to go.

Which girls?
Be principled oga.

If you ain't smashing any girl she should simply remain a good friend.
You don't throw money to good friends.

You either lend them money without interest or you render financial help when they're legitimately stuck in a financial fiasco.

And if that arrangement is not reciprocal, you end that friendship.

Never feed a horse you don't ride.
