Okay, I've checked online and stuff, but most of what i find in regards to this specifically is only "it varies per age and person." Which doesn't help.
So, here's my question:
I was wondering, if someone got HIV at a young age (let's say 7-9) and it went undetected for about 10 years, when it was detected, would it be full blown AIDS? Or advanced HIV w/ symptoms? Or is this scenario just not likely at all?

Or any other diseases for that matter? I think the government is just covering it up because there is too much money to be made in prolonging the treatments. I feel like it's a lost cause sometimes because the government has their hands in everything. And even if they did discover a cure, the FDA has to approve it!

I was hospitalized in early July with what they said was kidney infection for 4 days. Ever since I got out of the hospital on July 6 I have felt fatigued, nauseated, and body aches like I want to jump out of my skin. My eyes especially ache. Have had blood workup, CT of abdomen and chest and MRI of lumbar spine. Been to hematologist, urologist, 2 ERs. Have appt with rheumatologist coming up. I have stopped working and applying for short term disability. I feel like I'm losing my mind. No one seems to know what it is. Anyone have similar symptoms or have any suggestions? thanks

My 7-1/2 year old son may have them even though he got the vaccination when he was one. Although he has the red bumps, he says they don't itch. I have heard that people who get them after the vaccination have milder cases...anyone who has experienced having chicken pox after vaccination, please share your experience.

My sons body vibrates. It is noticeable in his hands and head. Everything I search points to parkinson's. His grandfather and great grandfather have been diagnosed with parkinson's, but the doctors I've asked say that my son can't have it because he's too young. (My son is 10.) I don't think the disease cares how old a person is.

Serious answers only please. Does anyone know the progression of terminal liver cancer?

My 84 year old mother started having nausea 6 weeks ago. 2 weeks ago they found 6 cancerous tumors in her liver. She is suffering so much. She is growing weaker every day, cannot keep food down and doesn't have an appetite.

I am taking care of her at my home. Hospice is helping and trying to keep her pain down.
It is heart breaking to watch her suffering and declining each day and I just want her to be released from this suffering.

Does anyone know or have experience as to approximately how long she will have to suffer before she can pass on?

Please no answers as to "when God is ready" as that does not help to give me any idea how long she is going to have to suffer more.
Thank you for any help.
