Hi Drew,
 
Sorry for the delay in replying, I did write about a week ago, but it didn't load for some reason.
I'll get right to answering your questions then,
 
The hep b, well, my last check up they said that I may have seroconverted as ther is no trace of it.I have been treated for it over the past 4 years, so needless to say, I was very pleased with that news.I was ill with it years ago, but to this day I've had no symptoms of it.
Before I went on meds for hiv I never had any symptoms. I just went with the advice of the doctors and started it when they told me. In the 4 years or so I've missed just 2, this was down to falling asleep on the sofa!
I've had hiv for around 5 or 6 years now.
My diet is not the greatest, but I do eat well. I eat what I enjoy and eat when I'm hungry. I've always been slim, quite fortunate really, but since stopping the meds I have put on weight.
Regarding my ex girlfriend, she never got hep from me. She did get diagnosed with hiv, but as I mentioned in the above letter, she was pregnant when she was tested, so who knows how they arrived at the outcome.  She is also healthy to this day.
 
I recently went for more check ups and I must say, the results have shown a slight increase in my VL, which did concern me as I have been undetectable for a few years. This however is down to the changes in my system as I have not taken meds now for almost 2 months. I have gone for more tests and am now going to monitor the results more closely.
 
I hope this helps, I'll be reporting back with the results soon and keep feeding back any findings I come across.
 
Take care,
