Gala - When I mean simple, it doesn't prevent you from doing anything.Call ichtus, infarction, or other diseases are complicated because it does not let you make a normal life.That prevents you from Diebetes and please reason your answer, because you tell me that you are in the Hospital X time to try to stabilize, it is not the same as you give you a heart attack to the 30?and have to be careful.If that is a complication that God comes and see it.Complication is pulmon cancer, or similar that even if you want you can do nothing.The only thing that has changed my life since debuting is that I tell rations and sulph me insulin.The rest do exactly and as exactly the same.
Salvador- treatment
At this time, there is no cure for HIV infection, but there are treatments available to handle symptoms and reduce how much it replicates) the virus itself.Treatment can also improve the quality and duration of life in those people who have already developed symptoms.
Antiretroviral therapy inhibits the replication of HIV virus in the body.A combination of antiretroviral drugs, called antiretroviral therapy (TAR) or high -activity antiretroviral therapy (slope) is very effective in reducing the amount of HIV in the bloodstream.This measuring effect by means of the viral load (how much free virus is in the blood).Preventing the virus from reproducing (replication) can improve T's counts and help the immune system recover from HIV infection.
People who are receiving antiretroviral therapy and with reduced HIV levels can also transmit the virus to others through sexual intercourse or sharing needles.Antiretroviral therapy can prolong and improve life if the HIV level remains reduced and the CD4 count remains high (above 200 cells/mm3).
HIV can become resistant to a combination of antiretroviral therapy.This occurs above all in patients who do not take their medications during the due time.With tests, it can be verified if an HIV strain is resistant to a certain drug.This information can help the doctor find the best combination of drugs and adjust it when it begins to fail.
When HIV becomes resistant to antiretroviral therapy, other drug combinations have to be used to try to inhibit resistant HIV strain.There is a variety of new drugs in the market for the treatment of pharmacor resistant HIV.
Treatment with antiretroviral therapy has complications, since each drug has its own side effects.Some of these common side effects are:
Back fat accumulation ("buffalo hump") and abdomen
Diarrhea
General feeling of indisposition (discomfort)
Headache
Nausea
Weakness
When used for a long time, these medications increase the risk of heart attack, perhaps by increasing cholesterol and glucose (sugar) levels in the blood.
People who receive antiretroviral therapy need to follow up a doctor to detect possible side effects.Blood exams to measure CD4 counts and HIV viral load will probably be done every three months.The objective is to achieve a CD4 count close to normal and reduce the amount of HIV virus in the blood to a level where it cannot be detected.
Medications can be prescribed to treat AIDS -related problems, such as anemia and low white blood cell count, as well as to prevent opportunistic infections.
Support groups
Join a support group where members share experiences and problems in common can often help reduce stressemotional to have a chronic disease.
Expectations (prognosis)
At this time, there is no cure for AIDS and is almost always deadly without treatment.In the United States, most patients survive many years after diagnosis, due to treatment with antiretroviral therapy.New medications are being developed.
When a person is infected with HIV, the virus begins to slowly destroy their immune system, but the speed with which this happens changes from one person to another.Treatment with antiretroviral therapy can help delay or stop the destruction of said immune system.
Once the immune system is seriously damaged, that person has AIDS and can contract infections and cancers that most healthy people would not have.Doctors have discovered that when CD4 cells fall below certain counts, specific types of infections and cancers can be contracted.
--- To tell me that he has remedy is to piss and not drop.The treatment is palliative, not like diabetes that is combative.
LEUKEMIA:
In a leukemia (blood cancer) the treatment depends, above all, on the form of leukemia suffered by the patient.
Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy is the treatment of choice in most cases of leukemia (blood cancer).The medications used are called cytostatic.Cytotoxins inhibit the growth and proliferation of cancer cells.The cytostatics mainly attack the cells that are divided since cancer cells are rapidly divided out of control, cytostatics act on them.However, there are also healthy cells that are quickly divided (for example, mucous cells).Chemotherapy, therefore, can temporarily affect other organs or healthy tissues of the body.
In general, cytotoxic agents are administered in monodysis or in combination.Chemotherapy is carried out at regular intervals (cycles).During treatment the doctor regularly performs a blood analytics.
Chemotherapy temporarily damages bone marrow, deteriorating the formation of new blood cells and immune system cells.As a result, anemia and immunodefression ensue, which increases the risk of hemorrhage and infection.
Other side effects of chemotherapy can be the following:
Nausea
Vomiting
General discomfort
Mucositic inflammation (mucositis)
Hair drop
Cytostatic can increase the risk of cancer (carcinogens).Doctors must first weigh the utility and risks of a treatment.In leukemia chemotherapy is often the only possibility of fighting the disease.
The intensity, shape and degree of chemotherapy depend, among other things, the type of leukemia suffered by the patient.
What is worse, chemio and radio with the consequences or have to count rations and click insulin?
I have put those two examples as it could put others, but I reiterate that complications or side effects are carried into comparison of many other chronic or terminal diseases.It is one thing to read what one wants to read and another to understand what I mean.Yes, it is a disease, chronic, but it is not at all terminal or limiting, you can make normal life, not like others that treatment can or cannot take effect, and as long as this lasts, your quality of life is brutally diminished.As long as I know, insulin does not prevent anything from nor does it have as severe and limiting side effects as chemio?
