From Diagnosis to the future. Monthly Archives: December 2014. December 3, 2014. In recognition of World AIDS Day 2014 I had the pleasure of attending a screening of a documentary “We Were Here” and a panel discussion was held afterwards. There was the nurse who worked on AIDS wards, treating the patients, caring for them and their partners and relatives. In some cases explaining what was going on as Doctors wouldn’t. She cared for them as friends. You could see in her eyes she cared. As treatments becam...

From Diagnosis to the future. Monthly Archives: July 2014. Views from a negative partner. July 15, 2014. As many of my readers will know that from day one my biggest concern was being in a position of having a relationship with someone who understood. I never imagined it would happen…. 8230;But it did. I was lucky enough to meet someone in January and things have developed from there. But then there’s the fact that he’s ‘riddled’ (his term, not mine) Before I met Stuart, but after we’d exchanged over a g...

From Diagnosis to the future. Monthly Archives: August 2014. Medication – It’s not always easy. August 30, 2014. A few months back the lovely @positivejamesh on twitter wrote an article for Beyond Positive and it resonated massively with me at the time. Almost like he was writing from my head even though I am still not even a year into this. You can read it here:. Http:/ www.beyondpositive.org/2014/05/27/never-ending-battle-meds/. Four weeks ago I saw my consultant. I discussed the issues with him an...

From Diagnosis to the future. Monthly Archives: March 2014. March 10, 2014. I am hurtling towards my 6 month anniversary later this month and to be honest I am asking myself is it really only 6 months. There is a lot of stuff written about wanting the general public to accept HIV people, to reduce stigma and to understand the implications of a diagnosis on someone, but I have started to ask myself when will I accept my own diagnosis? How long until I accept my diagnosis? Follow me on Twitter.

From Diagnosis to the future. November 22, 2014. I’ve not posted for a while, not for a particular reason. My first diagnosis anniversary came and went. My mood on the day to be honest was not the best but actually it was after the event that my mood dropped. I do feel like there is always something. If its not my eczema flaring up, having flu or a cold, or an issue with medication and its tiring. I feel like I am constantly on edge and this is exhausting. Next post →. Follow me on Twitter.

From Diagnosis to the future. Monthly Archives: April 2014. Is there a future? Yes, I just can’t see it yet. April 13, 2014. Its been a while since I wrote a blog, so therefore its time for a bit of an update as to where I things are at. My last blog was just before my 6 month anniversary, so lets start there. I don’t know. I am very guilty of self-stigmatising, unsure if this is normal. I knew HIV people before my own diagnosis and it was not a thought or something that bothered me. Yet, I feel ...IR...

From Diagnosis to the future. Monthly Archives: June 2014. June 13, 2014. I’ve been rather quiet on the blogging front of late. Its not been a conscious step, just one thats happened naturally. Could have quite easily came from my own lips. James explains it so eloquently. Other than the reminder I do still notice a drop in mood when I take them. This could be linked to the fact they are a reminder for me or they could be affecting my mood. Its something I am keeping an eye on and will se...There was a p...
