AIDS everyday
The impact of HIV on the daily life of the patient is not to
be overlooked: the multiple medications and their side effects, psychological
turmoil, ...
However, there is no risk of transmission of AIDS every day
and it is good to remind the patient and his entourage because only sexual
fluids (semen and vaginal fluids) and blood are factors of contamination.
Also, it would be unfair to keep the patient away from the
family.
Tips
Do not refuse to seek treatment for fear of infecting others
or fear of discrimination (dental care is essentially important)
Know how to face social exclusion, harassment and whispers
of others: to trust his doctor that he inform his entourage on the risks of
contamination. The information is the only way to avoid discrimination.
During a trip to bring his insurance card, her immunization
card (to be updated), learn about the laws regarding AIDS in the country of
destination, bring a certificate medical and treatment in an amount sufficient
to avoid breaking the drug intake.
Comply with precautions to prevent contamination and risk
situations (use of condoms during sex, cleaning and dressing wounds, ....)
