Health wise:

1. Eat Healthy

2. Exercise regularly

3. Sleep Well

4. Reduce Stress

5. Have protected and health sex.

6. Regular medical checkups ( 4times a year)

7. Mental soundness. Here, the individual spirituality plays a role.

Hope this helped.

Things are not easy. True.

Things that help. Groom yourself to the hilt. Never let the day break without looking your best. Listen to motivational videos or audios. Keep good dear loving friends on speed dial.
Stop drinking. Eat real whole meals, fruits. Exercise. Look out for the good things in live(nothing like a sunset). Get a good laugh.

You are the best version of YOU. YOU are uniquely YOU. Who can take care of YOU like YOU.

Since you requested for Test, then you should try this

First of all CT test to check if you have cancer

EKG test to check if your heart is all right

MRI scan to check if your brain is functioning well and you don't have brain tumour


Just be ready to spend big on all these.







And if they still can't figure out what's wrong wif you after all these tests... my broda Go force your self do HIV test.















And if you are fortunate enough to Be HIV negative... hmmmm. Plz go and withdraw all your Life saving and take it to your village to appease the elders there. That's all.

Am so sorry for the difficulties you are currently facing. Please accept my sympathy.


But listen carefully, if you have HIV, the only thing that can stop all these conditions you are suffering from is Anti retroviral drugs. Am sorry but that is the truth. The drugs will suppress the virus that is causing these conditions and boost your immune system and you will feel much better and healthier.

I know this is something you might not want to hear but you need to go for an HIV test. Just do it. It is not the end of the world please. You can live till your nineties if you diligently take your ARV drugs but if you don't take them and HIV is there then living till even 50 years might be impossible coupled with the money you will waste on treating all the conditions the HIV will bring up when simple ARV can prevent them.

You can take the test and keep the result to yourself while doing your best to prevent infecting others.

I wish you the best sincerely from the bottom of my heart.

are hiv postive or works in the hospital ? Are you talking from experience ? Why I didn't suspect hiv as much is because I am not dropping weight at all and I am trying to drop weight . It's passed three and I've not eaten my breakfast just because I want to reduce .

I don't understand you. If you honestly don't think Hiv could be the suspect then you will not run away from an Hiv test.
And you said you started having these symptoms since you had unprotected sex a year ago.

Just do the test abeg. You people make others regret being polite to you. Do the fucking_ test and move on.

Since you had a drinking problem, I'm surprised no one suggested liver problems.

Late-stage liver failure can also cause bad breath. Also known as "Fetor hepaticus," the sweet, musty aroma is caused by dimethyl sulfide, not ketones. Because of this symptom, breath analysis could potentially be used as a diagnostic tool for detecting liver pathologies, according to an article published by Belgian researchers in the Journal of Chromatography B.

In addition, people with chronic kidney failure may have breath that smells "fishy" or like ammonia, according to the NIH. Known as "uremic fetor," the high concentration of urea in the saliva and its subsequent breakdown to ammonia causes this condition.

Other medical problems associated with bad breath include sinusitis (inflamed sinuses), pneumonia, bronchitis, postnasal drip and acid reflux.

Those who are just getting everything for free doesn't know what God is doing for them . Thanks anyway . I will keep searching untill I get a result .

Please do the test.
That is honestly the best advice I can give you. Who knows it it's not even your anxiety and fear that is giving you sleepless nights and not even Hiv??

From the way you described your symptoms I don't think you have Hiv sef.
If you have had Hiv for the past two years you will have been suffering from periodic fevers, periodic diarrhea, skin rashes or breakouts and other conditions that show up once in a while all at the same time. Like once every six weeks or once a month.

You didn't say you have anything like that so you probably do not have Hiv. I think of you go to the hospital and do confirmatory tests your negative results will put your mind at ease and help you sleep well.

Just stop panicking OK? Try and gather liver to know your status once and for all.

bro thank you. It seems like you're a doctor . If I had fever I will be happy . What breakout do you mean ? My face got bigger cannot sleeping for long time cause that ? Yes I normally get scared each time I hear hiv and once I google about it . Forget it no sleep that night but the girl I am suspecting is healthy and fresh . I've begged her to tell me if she has it . She will insult me and call me spoil brat and other names and sometimes get angry . What could make my look get bigger ? Sleeping doesn't bother me anymore before I don't used to sleep at all even with all the sleeping meds but now I can sleep from 1am . My pain is my face too big to hide , I love food so much I can't starve for days just to drop . Can jogging help me out ?

You might be suffering from the after effects of taking dexacorten. For your head to be big or full and having droping cheeks suggest "cushing syndrome". That is why i warn pple to desist from taking all those stuffs like mau mau, wate-on and the likes.
You definitely need to stop taking such.

@frankolololo

Do you take those drugs or did you take them before in the past?

I feel so bad for you. You sound so scared it's showing in your posts.
I don't think you have Hiv. I really try don't think so.

Take the test please and free your mind. If you had Hiv that your cold you caught 6weeks after the unprotected sex would be a recurring thing you suffer from regularly.

Your worry is what is keeping you awake.

If I fall sick I will even be happy atleast it can be treated and I will be free after a while . Yes I had unprotected sex 15 November 2015 and had serious cold January 12 2016 but them I wasn't going to the hospital to check if I dropped weight . Because I've never been sick and I am
