An HIV carrier from Guangdong Province, who received burns to 85 percent of her body during an agricultural accident, is fighting for her life after local hospitals refused to treat her injuries.
The case illustrates the difficulties HIV-positive patients face in receiving non-related treatment in China since general hospitals usually transfer them to infectious disease hospitals, which are not equipped to treat other conditions such as severe burns.
Wang Biwen, 30, suffered the burns in May when doing farm work with her husband, Deng Zerun.
Wang was rushed to the local Yingde People's Hospital, which later transferred Wang to Yuebei People's Hospital in Shaoguan.
After doctors tested Wang's blood and found her to be HIV-positive they sought to move her to another facility, Deng told the Global Times.
"Xiao Yong, a doctor in the Yuebei Hospital, told me at that time that my wife only had 20 days left to live. He asked me to bring her back if she could survive for a while and noted that the surgery costs would be cheaper later on," Deng said.
He took Wang back to the Yingde People's hospital, where she was also refused treatment.
Deng eventually brought his wife home where he was forced to use herbs to treat her wounds.
However, after Wang survived for 20 days, the Shaoguan hospital still refused to treat Wang, claiming the herbs had caused her condition to worsen.
These remarks could not be verified with the Yuebei People's Hospital by press time.
A desperate Deng called several larger hospitals in Guangzhou to no avail.
In late August, Deng appealed to the Yingde health bureau, which ordered the Yingde People's Hospital to temporarily accommodate Wang. But without a burns unit, the Yingde hospital was powerless to do more.
Deng's story was then published in the Yangcheng Evening News.
Liao Xinbo, a vice director of the Guangdong's Department of Health, told the newspaper Thursday that qualified hospitals have no right to reject patients without proper reasons.
"Any local hospital with a burn department should accommodate such a patient immediately. If the hospital needs support to treat HIV-carriers, they can invite doctors from designated infectious disease hospitals to help. Patients can report any unreasonable refusal to our department," Liao said.
"I am still hoping that the hospitals will change their minds and save my wife," Deng said.

Interview with HIV doctors
HIV Doctors
What type of medical specialist do I need if I am HIV positive?
The research shows that if your doctor has experience with HIV treatment, significant experience, you will tend to live longer and better. So when you seek out medical advice and you're beginning HIV treatment, it's important to ask your doctor if he has experience with treating HIV and how many patients he's treated with HIV. The type of doctor that you need is an infectious disease specialist, preferably someone who has significant experience in treating HIV patients.What should I look for in an HIV doctor?
A good HIV doctor should have significant experience in treating HIV patients, but should also be in tune with who you are as a person. Do they understand your lifestyle? Do they understand your habits and your situations? Can you speak freely with your doctor? Are you comfortable telling your doctor about potentially drugs or alcohol or sexual situations that you found yourself in? If you find yourself not being honest with your doctor, chances are very good that you don't have the right doctor.How do I find an HIV doctor?
The first step to finding an HIV doctor is to call your state's AIDS hotline. Get the number of an AIDS service organization in your area or city. Step two: call the AIDS service organization and ask for a list of HIV specialists whom they recommend. Step three: talk to friends, support group members, counselors or other knowledgeable people about who among the list they have experience with, and who might be a best fit with you. Step four: interview HIV doctors like you would anyone else. See if they're a good fit for you. When you get the list down to two or three doctors, go through some of the financial realities. Is your insurance carried by this specialist? Are you comfortable with that person? Finally, make the decision, but always know that you can change HIV doctors at any time.When should I make my first HIV appointment?
When you first test HIV positive, the first thing you need to understand is how healthy is your immune system and how far or how aggressive is the HIV that you have. I think, right away after testing HIV positive, people should visit an HIV doctor. You need to get a CD4 test, which measures the health of your immune system, and an HIV viral load test, which measures the amount of HIV virus in your blood. With the results of those two tests you can make further decisions. If you have a healthy immune system, perhaps you can wait longer before seeing another doctor about your HIV. With an immune system that is not as healthy, you should be in regular contact with your HIV doctor.What should I expect at the first appointment with my HIV doctor?
The first appointment with an HIV doctor can be uncomfortable because the subject of HIV, in itself, can be uncomfortable. So you can expect that an HIV doctor will ask you a whole series of questions about your health and your life, and some of your habits. You'll most likely be tested for a variety of other conditions, such as Hepatitis B and or Hepatitis C. In an appointment with an HIV doctor, you can expect questions about drugs and alcohol, questions about sexual practices, the use of condoms, your overall health in general, and you can expect a physical examination where the HIV doctor will literally touch and feel you to determine the health of your body. You can also expect probably a short speech about safe sex practices and substance abuse interventions, and that would be what you should expect from a visit to an HIV specialist.What questions should I ask my HIV doctor during my first appointment?
The questions to ask your doctor during your first appointment include the number of patients or experience that that doctor has in treating people. The research shows that people that doctors who treat substantial number of HIV patients tend to do a better job treating them. So one of the first questions to ask is; How many other patients that that doctor has treated? Other questions would include; What's the health of my immune system? How are my T-Cells or CD4 cells? How much virus is in my body? How is the viral load, is it high or is it low? How's the general sense of my health? Is my liver in good shape? Is my blood pressure high? So there's HIV questions and then there's general health questions that people need to keep in mind.Will my HIV doctor put me on medication immediately?
The time to go on HIV medication really depends upon the health of your immune system, also called a CD4 or T-cell count, weighed along with the HIV viral load test, which is the amount of HIV that's in your blood. If you have a high viral load and a low T-cell, the time to start medicine is much sooner. If you have a very healthy and strong immune system, and very little virus in your blood, it may be months or years before you need treatment.http://www.videojug.com/interview/hiv-doctors

How to find a doctor?
In general there are two categories of doctors, those that practice medicine and those that do surgery—some do both. If you are seeking the help of a doctor, either a general medical doctor, a specialist, or a surgeon, the following medical specialty list will help you with what type doctor you need. Some of these specialist may be MDs (medical doctors) or DOs (doctors of osteopathy).

Allergies are when the body’s immune system overreacts to something it’s not used to causing a “reaction.” Allergens—things that irritate the body, like pollen, foods, mold, smoke, or medicine—can cause an allergic reaction or allergy. Symptoms of allergic reaction can include sneezing, rash, tears in the eyes and runny nose. Shortness of breath, chest tightness and trouble breathing are symptoms of a severe reaction, and often need emergency treatment. An allergist specializes in identifying the causes of these reactions and recommends treatment. Treatment can include avoiding the allergen, shots to decrease symptoms (called desensitization shots) or pills.

HIV part 1
http://www.tibotec-hiv.com/bgdisplay.jhtml?itemname=treatment_and_drug_classes
What are alternative and complementary medicines?
Alternative and complementary medicine is the name generally given to those medical and health care systems, practices, and products that are not presently considered to be part of conventional Western medicine. Well known examples include herbal and other nutritional supplements, acupuncture, aromatherapy, homeopathy and yoga.
Most people living with HIV in developed countries have ready access to antiretroviral therapy and conventional treatments for opportunistic infections. Because these treatments are so effective, there is less demand for alternative HIV medicine, except perhaps for addressing relatively minor infections, or when antiretroviral treatment cannot any longer be taken, for example because of drug resistance. Many instead look to complementary medicine as a way to prevent or relieve aids treatment side effects, some of which are not easily treatable with conventional medicine. There is also demand for complementary therapies that might boost immunity, relieve stress, or improve general health and wellbeing.
The people who distrust and avoid Western medicine for HIV include not only individuals, but also some governments. For example, senior politicians in South Africa have promoted unproven therapies while at times disparaging antiretroviral drugs. In Gambia, the president himself has treated patients with a herbal mixture he claims is an AIDS cure.
Still it can be argued that, from a scientific point of view, some treatments are more likely to work than others. Acupuncture, for example, appears to alter brain activity,4 and there is quite good evidence that it can help relieve post-operative nausea.5 6 Herbal medicines, too, are scientifically plausible: a number of modern drugs were derived from plants first used traditionally. Scientists have already identified one plant extract that acts like an antiretroviral drug;7 it is entirely possible that there are others.
At the other end of the scale are therapies that are not considered credible by the scientific community at large. The most notorious of these is homeopathy, which the World Health Organization recommends should not be used to treat HIV.8
Yet even if a medicine has no specific effects on an illness, this doesn’t necessarily mean it is worse than nothing. It is widely accepted that patients’ beliefs about a treatment, and the quality of the doctor-patient relationship, can influence health outcomes. This is what is known as the placebo effect. For example, one trial9 divided irritable bowel syndrome sufferers into three groups: the first received no treatment, the second underwent sham acupuncture (placebo), and the third received fake acupuncture plus a 45-minute consultation with a friendly doctor. The proportions of patients reporting moderate or substantial improvement were 3% (no treatment), 20% (placebo only) and 37% (placebo plus interaction). This effect may well account for some of the reported benefits of alternative and complementary medicine, as suggested in an editorial that accompanied the study:
Yet it is misleading to suggest that no research takes place. The US government has an agency (NCCAM) dedicated to complementary and alternative medicine, and in 2010 the National Institutes of Health (NIH) allocated nearly around $520 million to this field11 (around 1.5% of all federal funding for medical research).12 Potential HIV therapies investigated in government-sponsored trials include acupuncture, yoga, Reiki and distant healing.13
Although practioners of complementary and alternative medicine generally voice support for scientific research, they are often unwilling to accept negative findings. In 2005, medical journal The Lancet published the most thorough review of homeopathy trials ever conducted.14 Having analysed more than one hundred trials related to a wide range of illnesses, the authors concluded,
Herbal or nutritional therapies (notably St John’s Wort) may also interact with other medications, making them less effective or worsening their side effects.
In general, herbal remedies and dietary supplements are not covered by the strict regulations that govern pharmaceutical drugs. Quality is inconsistent even among popular commercial formulations; tests have shown that the concentrations of active ingredients can vary greatly from the amounts listed on the packaging.17
The standard of complementary and alternative practitioners is similarly uneven. Although some countries regulate certain types of practitioners (such as osteopaths in the US and UK), many people practise without any formal qualifications.
Even if a therapy carries little risk of direct physical harm, it may still turn out to be a waste of time and money. Relying on alternative medicine instead of scientifically proven treatment can have very serious consequences. Once HIV has severely weakened the immune system, antiretroviral drugs are less likely to be life-saving.
The Canadian AIDS Treatment Information Exchange (CATIE) suggests ten questions for assessing a new therapy:18
As already discussed, all forms of complementary medicine are unproven according to Western conventional medicine; each individual must make their own assessment of likely risks and benefits based on the available data. The most reliable evidence comes from large human trials – preferably randomised trials in which the treatment is compared to a placebo. Personal testimonies and laboratory findings should be given less weight, especially if they appear only in promotional material. Anyone who makes sensational claims (such as being able to cure many unrelated diseases with a single therapy), or who attacks conventional treatment, is probably best avoided.
If you have done your research and wish to try a complementary therapy, the next step is to talk to your personal doctor or HIV specialist. This is important because there may be a risk of interactions with other medications.
Some medical doctors have received training in complementary medicine. If your doctor lacks such expertise then it may be sensible to also find a complementary practitioner, ideally one with experience in treating people with HIV. Help finding a practitioner may be obtained from your doctor, an AIDS service organisation, or a professional body such as the Institute for Complementary Medicine in the UK, or the American Holistic Medical Association in the US. There are many practitioners available; it is worth taking the time to find one you trust and feel comfortable with. Look for experience, qualifications and references you can verify.
When purchasing a herbal medicine or nutritional supplement, try to choose a reputable seller and manufacturer. Large, long-established companies are generally the most trustworthy because they have more to lose from selling poor quality goods. If possible, look for a company that submits its products for independent quality testing.
Having started a new treatment, it is a good idea to keep a diary of your symptoms. This will help you assess whether the therapy is having the desired outcome, or whether it may be causing unwanted side effects.
Whole medical systems
Although few have been scientifically tested, there can be little doubt that some of the remedies given by traditional healers are effective in treating HIV-related opportunistic infections and drug side effects. However, in common with all forms of medicine, these therapies may also do harm through side effects, drug interactions, or delaying use of conventional treatment. In addition, the reuse of implements for rituals such as scarification, tattooing and circumcision can transmit infections, including HIV. Some African healers blame illness on witchcraft, which can lead to ostracism of those accused.
Collaboration between traditional healers and Western doctors has the potential to improve safety, for example by encouraging better hygiene. Training can also assist traditional healers in identifying illnesses beyond their capacity to treat, hastening referral to a clinic when necessary. In South Africa, The Traditional Health Practitioners Act includes a council to oversee and provide training to traditional health practitioners to protect the interests of the patient. As yet, the Act has not been fully enforced; there have been calls to implement the Act alongside a robust system of scientific testing of 'remedies'.20
Traditional healers are respected within their communities, and know how to convey health information in a culturally appropriate manner.21 They are ideally placed to teach HIV prevention, distribute condoms, conduct counselling, encourage HIV testing, and set up support groups for affected people.
Yet although traditional healers are generally eager to learn from other health workers, experience has shown it is not necessarily easy to establish successful collaboration.22 Traditional theories of disease causation are very different to those of Western science. Traditional healers – suppressed during the colonial era, and often demonised in the media – are understandably suspicious of authority. Many are reluctant to reveal details of their remedies for fear that their ideas will be stolen. Likewise, conventional doctors are inclined to be prejudiced against treatments that lack scientific foundation. These are not the only difficulties:
The best way to maximise the reach of training is to first identify and train a group of the most influential and respected healers, who can each then train many others. This method, however, requires ongoing support if it is to be sustainable.25
Despite the challenges, a number of organisations – such as THETA in Uganda, TAWG in Tanzania and the Copperbelt Province AIDS Task Force (PATF) in Zambia – have demonstrated the benefits of collaborating with traditional healers in HIV prevention and care.26 27 Much could be gained from replicating these programmes more widely.

What are alternative and complementary medicines?
Alternative and complementary medicine is the name generally given to those medical and health care systems, practices, and products that are not presently considered to be part of conventional Western medicine. Well known examples include herbal and other nutritional supplements, acupuncture, aromatherapy, homeopathy and yoga.
- Alternative medicine is used in place of conventional medicine
- Complementary medicine is used together with conventional medicine.
back to top What are these therapies used for?
In relation to HIV, alternative therapies are most commonly used in areas where it is difficult to access Western medicine. In the absence of antiretroviral treatment, people may seek other ways to delay the onset of AIDS, or to treat opportunistic infections. In sub-Saharan Africa, for example, traditional healers outnumber medically qualified doctors eighty-to-one.3 Traditional healers also usually provide immediate treatment, whereas clinics may have lengthy waiting lists and tests for eligibility.
Most people living with HIV in developed countries have ready access to antiretroviral therapy and conventional treatments for opportunistic infections. Because these treatments are so effective, there is less demand for alternative HIV medicine, except perhaps for addressing relatively minor infections, or when antiretroviral treatment cannot any longer be taken, for example because of drug resistance.

In Gambia, the president himself has treated patients with a herbal mixture he claims is an AIDS cure.
back to top Do alternative and complementary therapies for HIV and AIDS work?
Western medicine embraces all approaches shown to be safe and effective in rigorous scientific trials. By definition, complementary and alternative medicine consists of therapies that are unproven, at least by the standards of Western medicine. Given the many therapies in existence, there can be little doubt that some of them do what they are supposed to. Many others are likely to be ineffective or can even be harmful. In the absence of good scientific trials, it is impossible to be certain which is which.Still it can be argued that, from a scientific point of view, some treatments are more likely to work than others. Acupuncture, for example, appears to alter brain activity,4 and there is quite good evidence that it can help relieve post-operative nausea.5 6 Herbal medicines, too, are scientifically plausible: a number of modern drugs were derived from plants first used traditionally. Scientists have already identified one plant extract that acts like an antiretroviral drug;7 it is entirely possible that there are others.

This effect may well account for some of the reported benefits of alternative and complementary medicine, as suggested in an editorial that accompanied the study:
“Is it possible that the alternative medical community has tended historically to understand something important about the experience of illness and the ritual of doctor-patient interactions that the rest of medicine might do well to hear? … The meanings and expectations created by the interactions of doctors and patients matter physically, not just subjectively.”10Even if it fails to ease symptoms, the treatment experience may have non-specific effects such as boosting self-confidence and relieving anxiety. Group therapies – such as yoga – are particularly good for meeting new people, who may be able to share knowledge of other treatment options.
back to top Why is there such a lack of evidence?
Supporters of complementary and alternative medicine propose a number of reasons why their therapies have not been subjected to thorough testing. For one thing, major medical trials are highly expensive; if there is no prospect of a patent then there is less of an incentive to invest in research. Reliable, ethical trials also require a considerable amount of expertise. Many scientists with the necessary skills are reluctant to investigate therapies they think are implausible.Yet it is misleading to suggest that no research takes place. The US government has an agency (NCCAM) dedicated to complementary and alternative medicine, and in 2010 the National Institutes of Health (NIH) allocated nearly around $520 million to this field11 (around 1.5% of all federal funding for medical research).12 Potential HIV therapies investigated in government-sponsored trials include acupuncture, yoga, Reiki and distant healing.13

In 2005, medical journal The Lancet published the most thorough review of homeopathy trials ever conducted.14 Having analysed more than one hundred trials related to a wide range of illnesses, the authors concluded,
“there was no convincing evidence that homeopathy was superior to placebo.”Homeopaths united in objecting to the methodology of both the trials and the review.15 Some even suggested that placebo-controlled randomised trials (regarded as the gold-standard of medical science) were inappropriate for testing their system of healing.16
back to top Potential for harm
Some forms of complementary and alternative medicine can cause harmful side effects. Words like “natural” and “traditional” are certainly no guarantee of safety.Herbal or nutritional therapies (notably St John’s Wort) may also interact with other medications, making them less effective or worsening their side effects.
In general, herbal remedies and dietary supplements are not covered by the strict regulations that govern pharmaceutical drugs. Quality is inconsistent even among popular commercial formulations; tests have shown that the concentrations of active ingredients can vary greatly from the amounts listed on the packaging.17

HIV positive people have a long history of taking control of their own healthcare decision-making. Those interested in complementary medicine can take steps to maximise their chances of success.The Canadian AIDS Treatment Information Exchange (CATIE) suggests ten questions for assessing a new therapy:18
- What am I hoping to get out of this therapy?
- Do other HIV positive people use it?
- Am I able to talk to any of these other people about their experiences?
- Is there any research or additional information about this therapy?
- What are the side effects, if any?
- What sort of commitment do I have to make to use this treatment?
- Where can I get this treatment, and will it be regularly available?
- How much of this treatment is too much and what are the early signs of taking too much?
- Does this treatment interact with anything else I’m taking?
- How much does it cost?
As already discussed, all forms of complementary medicine are unproven according to Western conventional medicine; each individual must make their own assessment of likely risks and benefits based on the available data. The most reliable evidence comes from large human trials – preferably randomised trials in which the treatment is compared to a placebo. Personal testimonies and laboratory findings should be given less weight, especially if they appear only in promotional material. Anyone who makes sensational claims (such as being able to cure many unrelated diseases with a single therapy), or who attacks conventional treatment, is probably best avoided.
If you have done your research and wish to try a complementary therapy, the next step is to talk to your personal doctor or HIV specialist. This is important because there may be a risk of interactions with other medications.
Some medical doctors have received training in complementary medicine. If your doctor lacks such expertise then it may be sensible to also find a complementary practitioner, ideally one with experience in treating people with HIV. Help finding a practitioner may be obtained from your doctor, an AIDS service organisation, or a professional body such as the Institute for Complementary Medicine in the UK, or the American Holistic Medical Association in the US. There are many practitioners available; it is worth taking the time to find one you trust and feel comfortable with. Look for experience, qualifications and references you can verify.
When purchasing a herbal medicine or nutritional supplement, try to choose a reputable seller and manufacturer. Large, long-established companies are generally the most trustworthy because they have more to lose from selling poor quality goods. If possible, look for a company that submits its products for independent quality testing.
Having started a new treatment, it is a good idea to keep a diary of your symptoms. This will help you assess whether the therapy is having the desired outcome, or whether it may be causing unwanted side effects.

back to top African traditional healers and HIV
Sub-Saharan Africa is the region worst affected by AIDS; it is also a region in which most people turn first to traditional healers when they fall ill. There is potential for traditional healers to play an important role in responding to the epidemic.
Although few have been scientifically tested, there can be little doubt that some of the remedies given by traditional healers are effective in treating HIV-related opportunistic infections and drug side effects. However, in common with all forms of medicine, these therapies may also do harm through side effects, drug interactions, or delaying use of conventional treatment. In addition, the reuse of implements for rituals such as scarification, tattooing and circumcision can transmit infections, including HIV. Some African healers blame illness on witchcraft, which can lead to ostracism of those accused.
Collaboration between traditional healers and Western doctors has the potential to improve safety, for example by encouraging better hygiene. Training can also assist traditional healers in identifying illnesses beyond their capacity to treat, hastening referral to a clinic when necessary. In South Africa, The Traditional Health Practitioners Act includes a council to oversee and provide training to traditional health practitioners to protect the interests of the patient. As yet, the Act has not been fully enforced; there have been calls to implement the Act alongside a robust system of scientific testing of 'remedies'.20
Traditional healers are respected within their communities, and know how to convey health information in a culturally appropriate manner.21 They are ideally placed to teach HIV prevention, distribute condoms, conduct counselling, encourage HIV testing, and set up support groups for affected people.
Yet although traditional healers are generally eager to learn from other health workers, experience has shown it is not necessarily easy to establish successful collaboration.22 Traditional theories of disease causation are very different to those of Western science. Traditional healers – suppressed during the colonial era, and often demonised in the media – are understandably suspicious of authority. Many are reluctant to reveal details of their remedies for fear that their ideas will be stolen. Likewise, conventional doctors are inclined to be prejudiced against treatments that lack scientific foundation. These are not the only difficulties:
“How can healers give their clients a diagnosis of AIDS when it means possibly losing their business? How can a traditional healer – the traditional advocate of a clan’s fertility – counsel an HIV-positive woman who wants to have a child? And how can a traditional healer turn away a sick patient who has become dependent on his or her care and support?”23It may take months or even years to establish mutual trust, confidence and respect. Success depends on being sensitive to the local context, and cooperation must be on equal terms, regardless of level of education. Rather than trying to change traditional belief systems, research has shown it is better to stress what is common to both forms of medicine, and to establish a common language.24
The best way to maximise the reach of training is to first identify and train a group of the most influential and respected healers, who can each then train many others. This method, however, requires ongoing support if it is to be sustainable.25
Despite the challenges, a number of organisations – such as THETA in Uganda, TAWG in Tanzania and the Copperbelt Province AIDS Task Force (PATF) in Zambia – have demonstrated the benefits of collaborating with traditional healers in HIV prevention and care.26 27 Much could be gained from replicating these programmes more widely.

HIV part 2...
Finding a doctor is the first and most important step you will take after being diagnosed with HIV. HIV is a complex disease that requires specially trained physicians to deliver the complex care necessary for a healthy life. Complicated drug regimens with a multitude of side effects; the long-term complications of HIV such as lipodystrophy and mitochondrial toxicity (lactic acidosis) makes treating HIV disease a challenge. Because of this, finding a doctor is the first place to start. So how do people living with HIV find a doctor? Here is a brief guide to help you make good decisions. Good decisions by you now will pay off in long-term benefits later.

http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/234825.php
The types of doctors who specialize in treating HIV and AIDS have a better track record of treating HIV positive patients with the type of drug therapy that these patients need, when compared with the same types of doctors who do not specialize in this area.
To find such a physician, you can ask for a referral from your regular doctor or from a clinic such as Planned Parenthood. Your HMO or insurance provider may also be able to refer you to a specialist.
Once the HIV virus infects the body, the virus cells attach themselves to CD4 lymphocyte helper cells. After they have attached, the viral cells begin to multiply and take over, killing off the helper cells. These helper cells are necessary for the body’s immune system to function normally.
When many of these helper cells are gone, the body struggles to fight off common infections such as pneumonia and even more rarer conditions such as tuberculosis or encephalitis. As HIV progresses in the body and kills off more and more of these helper cells, it develops into full blown AIDS.
Even though there is no specific cure for HIV/AIDS, scientists have discovered a way to treat the HIV virus to slow it down in the body before it becomes full blown AIDS- this is why you need an HIV/AIDS specialty doctor.
Doctors treat patients with HIV/AIDS with antiretroviral drugs between the time when the HIV virus is first discovered and the onset of AIDS. This treatment involves a combination of drugs that combat the viral cells and allow patients to live longer than ever before.
There are actually reported cases of patients that have been diagnosed and treated with antiretroviral drugs who have lived out their entire lives without ever having developed full blown AIDS. The key to being successful with this treatment, however, is finding a doctor with a specialty in HIV AIDS to treat the disease.

What Type of Specialty Doctor Treats HIV AIDS?
What type of specialty doctor treats HIV AIDS? HIV and AIDS are treated by several different types of doctors.
Type of Specialty Doctor Who Treats HIV AIDS
Like any other disease, there are specific doctors that specialize in the treatment of HIV and AIDS. The best types of physicians to treat this disease are infectious disease doctors. You may also be able to find general practitioners that specialize in the treatment of HIV/AIDS treatment.The types of doctors who specialize in treating HIV and AIDS have a better track record of treating HIV positive patients with the type of drug therapy that these patients need, when compared with the same types of doctors who do not specialize in this area.
To find such a physician, you can ask for a referral from your regular doctor or from a clinic such as Planned Parenthood. Your HMO or insurance provider may also be able to refer you to a specialist.
You Need a Specialist to Treat HIV/AIDS
To understand why you need a doctor who specializes in HIV AIDS, it is important to understand the disease. AIDS stands for Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome. This disease is caused by the HIV virus. HIV stands for Human Immunodeficiency Virus.Once the HIV virus infects the body, the virus cells attach themselves to CD4 lymphocyte helper cells. After they have attached, the viral cells begin to multiply and take over, killing off the helper cells. These helper cells are necessary for the body’s immune system to function normally.
When many of these helper cells are gone, the body struggles to fight off common infections such as pneumonia and even more rarer conditions such as tuberculosis or encephalitis. As HIV progresses in the body and kills off more and more of these helper cells, it develops into full blown AIDS.
Treatment for HIV/AIDS
The first HIV/AIDS cases identified in the United States were in San Francisco, California and New York, New York more than 20 years ago. Although some people believe there is now a cure for this condition, scientists have yet to find a cure for the HIV/AIDS virus. Since the first discovered case of HIV/AIDS in 1981, more than 25 million infected individuals have died from AIDS and 2 million of them died in 2008 alone.Even though there is no specific cure for HIV/AIDS, scientists have discovered a way to treat the HIV virus to slow it down in the body before it becomes full blown AIDS- this is why you need an HIV/AIDS specialty doctor.

HIV rising rapidly in Philippines
HIV rising rapidly in Philippines
By ROY C. MABASA and CZARINA NICOLE O. ONG
September 4, 2011, 6:24pm
MANILA, Philippines -- Human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infections recorded in the Philippines have broken from a 20-year low to a rapidly spreading disease, particularly in Cebu, Davao and Manila, a new report by the Joint United Nations Program on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS) revealed over the weekend.
The report titled “HIV in Asia and the Pacific: Getting to Zero” cited HIV prevalence among people who inject drugs in the city of Cebu accelerated rapidly from 0.6 percent to 53 percent in just two years, between 2009 and 2011.
In Manila and again Cebu, HIV prevalence among men who have sex with men is now estimated up to 5 percent.
This is in complete contrast to what is happening across Asia and the Pacific.
Although an estimated 4.9 million people were living with HIV in the region in 2009 – a figure that has remained relatively stable since 2005 – a significant 20 percent decline in new infections was seen between 2001 and 2009 from 450,000 to 360,000, the report said.
Cambodia, India, Myanmar and Thailand have reduced their HIV infection rates significantly with intensive, wide-reaching HIV prevention programs for people who buy and sell sex.
The Department of the Interior and Local Government (DILG) has expressed concern over the alarming rise in HIV cases in the country.

1. The URL of my website is http://www.hiv-patient-asks-for-help.blogspot.com/ and https://groups.yahoo.com/group/patpong_bar_boyz
2. I am hoping to get donation money from anyone to help poor people (including me) who are suffering from HIV / AIDS and who are struggling their lives as prostitutes and are victims of the child prostitution. We are going to give HIV medication to HIV infected people who do not have medication and the welfare of them. We are going to help to jobless young people to prevent them from being prostitute and to help people who are working as prostitutes.
3. When you read my blogspot, you will see the poor lives of HIV infected people and if you join to my yahoogroup, you can read many messages uploading there which are mentioned about the wicked of the child prostitution in Asia. In these two websites, you can find out our activities to against the child prostitution and for HIV victims. My target location to use the donation money is in Myanmar and in Thailand where the free supply for HIV medication is much less than the number of people who are desperately need HIV medication. We do this by ourselves. We are not belongs to any government organization or any NGO organization.
4. I never use paypal service in my life so far. So, I don't know how it will help me. We think paypal will help us to deposit money into the bank account (the bank account which I provided) if anyone donate us and we just have a dim hope to get any amount of donation money from kind people around the globe to save the lives of HIV patients. Once we get the sufficient amount of money (we cannot do anything if we get only Baht. 10 or Baht. 50), we will make blogpost to show our donators what activities we are doing with their donation money. We will show with photos as well.
My donation fund is to accept money from any donator for any amount of money that will help to poor people only. We don't use this money for any online purchase purpose.
Best Regards,
Ye Chan

Thank you very much for your reply.
Kindly advise how I can delete my paypal limited account. I am not at
all happy to say with the limited account because it is no meaning for
me. I tried my best to delete my bank account number, my information,
my paypal account name, etc, but not success. Kindly advise me how I
can do it or could you kindly help me to delete all my information from
paypal account so that I can delete paypal website from my memory.
No matter what kind of policy that the paypal website has, it shold
resepect the WILL of the account owner at the paypal account. What do
you think. There is no meaning at your side to keep the information of
all useless paypal limited account owners too. From our sides too. We
don't want our information especially our bank account information which
is stored at paypal website too.
So, I, as a paypal limited account owner hereby, harmlessly request you

Looking forward to hearing from you. Your prompt action will be highly
appreciated. Thank you very much again.

Dear Nolan,
Thank you very much for your reply message.
As you have mentioned it in your message, paypal website keeps our informations to prevent fraud and you said that paypal site will not use our information for any purpose, nor sold or shared with third paties, except as necessary to prevent fraud and assist law enforcement, or as required by law.
First of all, you can see the wikileak website which could open the top secrets of USA Government and the whole World to the public, may I ask what you are or what the paypal website security is compared to the security status of the USA Government level? I strongly believe the paypal website cannot be comparable to the level of USA government security. Once our information will be used by thired parties or being sold, what kind of responsibles that paypal site will take? I am sure the paypal site may not even say "sorry" to us.
Second of all, paypal website keeps all our data or information to prevent fraud, but force us to trust to the paypal wbsite that paypal is very reliable to keep all our information. How do we trust in you or in paypal website since we never do any business transaction with paypal for life long period? Why you want us to trust you in any manner? Since you cannot trust us or have a doubt that we are doing any kind of fraud, why we have to trust the paypal too? Is paypal a God that everyone has to trust? Is paypal as highly as or as popular as American Express or Citibank? We cannot trust the paypal website to keep our informations too. What the paypal website is to be trusted by everyone who lives on earth? We don't truest paypal website AT ALL so that we cannot allow our informations which is kept by paypal website without our permission. You must see the security concern at our side too. You must not see the security concern only from your side.
Third of all, the law enforcement of the particular government must apply to it's own citizens only. We are not living in Singapore or we are not the citizen of Singapore and our bank is not in Singapore too. What is that law enforcement of Singapore concern to us since we do not have anything to do with the people of Singapore or the Government of Singapore. Only the law enforcement of our own country's government will apply on us. The law enforcement of Singapore will not apply to everyone who lives in Asia or all our Asian countries are not colonized by Singapore. Please mind your words. You have no right to be acted as upper-hands.
Last of all, this is our last request to delete all our information from paypal website since we are not at all happy to see ourselves in paypal website. We did not do any business transaction with paypal. This is the first time for us to apply paypal website. We will not do any business transaction with paypal and we don't do any business with paypal and we don't use any bank account with paypal for this life and we will tell our experience to our people. If you do not respect our request in any manner, we have no choice, but to publish this discrimination or our experience with paypal website to public or to seek the legal action. It is up to you if you want to keep your own bank information at any website or publish on the web, but this is our information. You have no right to keep it. In order to keep the publicity, we stongly believe that paypal website must respect the many requests of the paypal website limited account owners.
Your kind cooperation and your prompt action to this matter will be highly appreciated. Looking forward to your reply.
Sincerely
Ye Chan

We are not criminals and it is not a police record or interpol record. We, as a customer of paypal has right to request to close our account, to remove our bank account, our bank name, etc. There is no reason for us to keep our information at paypal anymore. We really did not know paypal website discriminates on those citizens who live in some particular poor Asian countries. So long as we live in these countries, paypal website is totally useless for us. Our begger group will never register at the government for sure. We want to delete all our informations or data at paypal website for life long period. We are here to request you to do it for us or to advise us how we can delete all our data from the paypal website for life. We are not here to appeal your decision to put us in limited account. We must have our right to delete our account once we are not happy with the paypal website.

Dear Sir / Madam,
Subject : My paypal account is limited (My case ID for this reason is PP-001-231-992-029.)
Kindly advice what is / are requirements to move my paypal account from being limited.
I sincerely beg or ask for help from people. What is that concern with any Asian government law and regulations? No begger organization is registered in Thailand, Myanmar, Laos, etc. I don't know in Singapore. Hope you kindly consider this matter from the humanitarian ground. After all, we all are human beings.
If you only accept business firms, I do have a business to make paypal account. You mean to say that all business organizations must registered at the government and no one can trade or sell his product on the net without the registration at the government or without having a company office?
One e-mail from paypal shows red light to set me in limited account, but the other e-mail from paypal shows green light by asking me to confirm the bank account with the two small deposits from paypal. I already done, but I cannot receive or send money using paypal. I don't understand what the paypal doing with me at all. I cannot delete my bank account or anything too. So, I cannot go forward and I cannot go backward too. Is that the regulations of the any government in Asia to do like that? I don't know what kind of fooling technique that paypal exercising me.

1. The URL of my website is http://www.hiv-patient-asks-for-help.blogspot.com/ and https://groups.yahoo.com/group/patpong_bar_boyz
2. I am hoping to get donation money from anyone to help poor people (including me) who are suffering from HIV / AIDS and who are struggling their lives as prostitutes and are victims of the child prostitution. We are going to give HIV medication to HIV infected people who do not have medication and the welfare of them. We are going to help to jobless young people to prevent them from being prostitute and to help people who are working as prostitutes.
3. When you read my blogspot, you will see the poor lives of HIV infected people and if you join to my yahoogroup, you can read many messages uploading there which are mentioned about the wicked of the child prostitution in Asia. In these two websites, you can find out our activities to against the child prostitution and for HIV victims. My target location to use the donation money is in Myanmar and in Thailand where the free supply for HIV medication is much less than the number of people who are desperately need HIV medication. We do this by ourselves. We are not belongs to any government organization or any NGO organization.
4. I never use paypal service in my life so far. So, I don't know how it will help me. We think paypal will help us to deposit money into the bank account (the bank account which I provided) if anyone donate us and we just have a dim hope to get any amount of donation money from kind people around the globe to save the lives of HIV patients. Once we get the sufficient amount of money (we cannot do anything if we get only Baht. 10 or Baht. 50), we will make blogpost to show our donators what activities we are doing with their donation money. We will show with photos as well.
My donation fund is to accept money from any donator for any amount of money that will help to poor people only. We don't use this money for any online purchase purpose.

Dear Sir,

Thank you very much for your reply.
Kindly advise how I can delete my paypal limited account. I am not at
all happy to say with the limited account because it is no meaning for
me. I tried my best to delete my bank account number, my information,
my paypal account name, etc, but not success. Kindly advise me how I
can do it or could you kindly help me to delete all my information from
paypal account so that I can delete paypal website from my memory.
No matter what kind of policy that the paypal website has, it shold
resepect the WILL of the account owner at the paypal account. What do
you think. There is no meaning at your side to keep the information of
all useless paypal limited account owners too. From our sides too. We
don't want our information especially our bank account information which
is stored at paypal website too.
So, I, as a paypal limited account owner hereby, harmlessly request you
to delete all my information which I mentioned above at paypal account
website.
Looking forward to hearing from you. Your prompt action will be highly
appreciated. Thank you very much again.
Best Regards,
Ye Chan

Dear Nolan,
Thank you very much for your reply message.
As you have mentioned it in your message, paypal website keeps our informations to prevent fraud and you said that paypal site will not use our information for any purpose, nor sold or shared with third paties, except as necessary to prevent fraud and assist law enforcement, or as required by law.
First of all, you can see the wikileak website which could open the top secrets of USA Government and the whole World to the public, may I ask what you are or what the paypal website security is compared to the security status of the USA Government level? I strongly believe the paypal website cannot be comparable to the level of USA government security. Once our information will be used by thired parties or being sold, what kind of responsibles that paypal site will take? I am sure the paypal site may not even say "sorry" to us.
Second of all, paypal website keeps all our data or information to prevent fraud, but force us to trust to the paypal wbsite that paypal is very reliable to keep all our information. How do we trust in you or in paypal website since we never do any business transaction with paypal for life long period? Why you want us to trust you in any manner? Since you cannot trust us or have a doubt that we are doing any kind of fraud, why we have to trust the paypal too? Is paypal a God that everyone has to trust? Is paypal as highly as or as popular as American Express or Citibank? We cannot trust the paypal website to keep our informations too. What the paypal website is to be trusted by everyone who lives on earth? We don't truest paypal website AT ALL so that we cannot allow our informations which is kept by paypal website without our permission. You must see the security concern at our side too. You must not see the security concern only from your side.
Third of all, the law enforcement of the particular government must apply to it's own citizens only. We are not living in Singapore or we are not the citizen of Singapore and our bank is not in Singapore too. What is that law enforcement of Singapore concern to us since we do not have anything to do with the people of Singapore or the Government of Singapore. Only the law enforcement of our own country's government will apply on us. The law enforcement of Singapore will not apply to everyone who lives in Asia or all our Asian countries are not colonized by Singapore. Please mind your words. You have no right to be acted as upper-hands.
Last of all, this is our last request to delete all our information from paypal website since we are not at all happy to see ourselves in paypal website. We did not do any business transaction with paypal. This is the first time for us to apply paypal website. We will not do any business transaction with paypal and we don't do any business with paypal and we don't use any bank account with paypal for this life and we will tell our experience to our people. If you do not respect our request in any manner, we have no choice, but to publish this discrimination or our experience with paypal website to public or to seek the legal action. It is up to you if you want to keep your own bank information at any website or publish on the web, but this is our information. You have no right to keep it. In order to keep the publicity, we stongly believe that paypal website must respect the many requests of the paypal website limited account owners.
Your kind cooperation and your prompt action to this matter will be highly appreciated. Looking forward to your reply.
Sincerely
Ye Chan

Hi Bing,
Subject: (Your case ID for this reason is PP-001-231-992-029)
Please check here below. I copied from the paypal website.
What can I do while my account is limited?
update your account information
add money to your account
add a card
add a bank account
send refunds
use PayPal logos in your auction listings or on your website
What can't I do while my account is limited?
send money
withdraw money from your account
receive or request money
close your account
remove a card
remove a bank account
We are not criminals and it is not a police record or interpol record. We, as a customer of paypal has right to request to close our account, to remove our bank account, our bank name, etc. There is no reason for us to keep our information at paypal anymore. We really did not know paypal website discriminates on those citizens who live in some particular poor Asian countries. So long as we live in these countries, paypal website is totally useless for us. Our begger group will never register at the government for sure. We want to delete all our informations or data at paypal website for life long period. We are here to request you to do it for us or to advise us how we can delete all our data from the paypal website for life. We are not here to appeal your decision to put us in limited account. We must have our right to delete our account once we are not happy with the paypal website.
We look forward to your kind cooperation and your prompt action to this matter. Thank you very much.

Dear Sir / Madam,
Subject : My paypal account is limited (My case ID for this reason is PP-001-231-992-029.)
Kindly advice what is / are requirements to move my paypal account from being limited.
I sincerely beg or ask for help from people. What is that concern with any Asian government law and regulations? No begger organization is registered in Thailand, Myanmar, Laos, etc. I don't know in Singapore. Hope you kindly consider this matter from the humanitarian ground. After all, we all are human beings.
If you only accept business firms, I do have a business to make paypal account. You mean to say that all business organizations must registered at the government and no one can trade or sell his product on the net without the registration at the government or without having a company office?
One e-mail from paypal shows red light to set me in limited account, but the other e-mail from paypal shows green light by asking me to confirm the bank account with the two small deposits from paypal. I already done, but I cannot receive or send money using paypal. I don't understand what the paypal doing with me at all. I cannot delete my bank account or anything too. So, I cannot go forward and I cannot go backward too. Is that the regulations of the any government in Asia to do like that? I don't know what kind of fooling technique that paypal exercising me.
Regards,
