Can Anyone Recommend An H I V Website Meant For Dating And Meeting?

A myHIVteam Member asked a question 💭
Geneva, IL

There have been current and new members who are very interested in meeting each other. Unfortunately, this is a support group virtual platform. Having said that, there have been couples who have met on here and gone on to get married. But there are existing platforms designed to meet and greet other HIV people too.... can you please share with us, which websites they are?

What Was Your Last CD4 Count?

A myHIVteam Member asked a question 💭
Edmore, MI

Some countries no longer tell you what your CD4 count is if you are undetectable.
If you live in a country that still tells you your CD4 count, what was your last number?

Finances

A myHIVteam Member asked a question 💭
Edmore, MI

How do you keep up with your monthly finances, and still stay afloat? I can keep up with my monthly bills, and daily living just fine. Then when the doctor bills come along, I just can't handle it all. So then I'm late on paying bills. I get food stamps and go to food pantries, but that's not enough. Sometimes I get help through HOPWA (housing opportunity people with AIDS), but that's only for 3 months. What kind of help do you get to keep afloat every month, that I could possibly look into.

Have You Had Or Have Cancer?

A myHIVteam Member asked a question 💭
Geneva, IL

Unfortunately, many long term and/or untreated HIV patients develop some form of cancer. Have you experienced this?

A myHIVteam Member

I don't think so. At one point, I was told that I had the early stages of multiple myeloma but several years later, I was told that my extremely high IgG level was due to HIV, so I don't know.
