Kind of both.. After being celibate for about 10 years I thought I was out of the woods.

To reinstate my life insurance I had to get tested.

So I received a letter in the mail telling my I was +

..Yup..same..Betrayed....😳
Over it now 👋👌👍😜

My case was very strange, or maybe it was the lack of attention in Mexico from my doctor. Since I went to the doctor for very severe diarrhea and he sent me to have some general tests done and he told me that he would also do the HIV tests... when I went to pick up my results, I opened the envelope with the results that came in a sealed envelope. And I don't know about the United States, but in Mexico it doesn't come as a NEGATIVE or POSITIVE result, it comes in another form and I searched on Google to find out what it meant and I saw that my result was positive. The worst thing was that when I went to the dr. He only told me that I had a virus in my stomach and he didn't EVEN MENTION the HIV thing to me, which caused confusion. What made me search more online about what my result meant, which I kept seeing that it had come out positive, the thing is that not knowing how to tell my family, it took me more than a month to tell them, the truth is that it hurt my heart to tell my father, who is still alive, that according to what I had investigated, my results were like positive for HIV, in fact I invited them to go out for a drink and since I and they were a little drunk, and they too... Hoping that they would take it easier or I don't know, but it was totally the opposite, my dad went crazy and started crying and screaming 🥹😞 and the good thing was that he and my older brother, whom I told, supported me morally and immediately looked for a clinic here in Mexico that helps with HIV treatment here in Mexico. 😭

Mi caso fue bien raro, o quizás sea la falta de atención en México por parte de mi doctor . Ya que fui al doctor por una diarrea muy fuerte y pues el me mandó a hacerme unos exámenes generales y me avisó que también me haría los del VIH ..al momento de ir a recojer mis resultados yo abrí el sobre con los resultados que venían en un sobre cerrado. Y nosé en Estados Unidos, pero en México no viene como resultado NEGATIVO o Positivo ,, viene de otra forma y yo busque en Google que quería decir y vi que mi resultado era positivo lo peor fue que cuando fui al dr. El solo me dijo que traía un virus en el estómago y lo del VIH NI ME LO MENCIONO ,Lo que le causó confusión. Lo que me hizo buscar más en línea sobre que quería decir lo que me salió como resultado, lo cual seguía viendo que había salido positivo, la cosa esque al no saber cómo decirle a mi familia , tarde más de un mes en decirles, la vdd me dolía en el corazón decirle a mi padre el cual sigue vivo que según lo que yo había investigado pues era que mis resultados eran como positivo para vih, de echo los invite a salir a tomar y ya que yo y ellos estaban un poco tomado ,y ellos también.. Esperando que lo tomarán más ligero o nosé , pero fue totalmente lo contrario mi papá se volvió loco y pezo a llorar y a gritar 🥹😞 y lo bueno fue que el y mi hermano mayor a los que les dije me apoyaron moralmente y de inmediato buscaron una clínica aquí en México que ayuda con tratamiento para VIH aquí en México.😭

There's life insurance available! I have it. You have to carry it for two years which sucks, but the time goes by fast. Mine just kicked in a few months ago

Oh wow. What a way to find out @A myHIVteam Member. That's one thing I really don't like about being HIV+ (and HepB+ too in my case) is that you don't qualify for many forms of life and health insurance due to being perceived as a risk or having preexisting conditions no matter how healthy you are.
