I have been Poz for 25 years.I've been on a cocktail since 1996..I didn't take earlier medicine because nobody was sure..I just learned along time ago to just not reinfect myself..

My name is Pamela Neely and on 4/29/93 I was diagnosed HIV positive. I experience basically the same as everyone else anger because I was so hurt. How dare something enter into my body without an invitation and now HIV is staying using Sqatter Right. Can you imagine that? After feeling very different in terms of never getting sick or needing to go on medication a study became available. Long Term Non-Progressor given by Boston General Hospital. There are atleast 600 people like me.
