The story of a woman in her 50s who contracted HIV from her “deceased man” | SSN

After the operation, Anna went to a sanatorium, and when she returned, she was prescribed therapy.

“I immediately started taking pills, I drink them every day – at 9 am and 9 pm I set an alarm clock so as not to miss it,” he shares.

But a few months later, a new surprise awaited the woman.

– I did a fluorography and a diaskintest – an allergy went, everything swelled up. They sent me to a phthisiatrician, but he said it was an allergy. And in March I got sick at work, started coughing. I called Oleg, he said: “Urgently go to the phthisiatrician, suddenly you have the same as me, because the symptoms are the same.”

Anna was hospitalized, later tests confirmed tuberculous pleurisy.

Tuberculous pleurisy is inflammation of the pleura (the lining of the lung) caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

– I have since been treated for tuberculosis, it is not dangerous for others, but I have been drinking handfuls of pills since April. At first they completely blew the roof, I swallowed 19 tablets along with HIV therapy, our interlocutor calculates. – I felt very bad, as if the vice was pressing, and such a state, as if something was wrong in my head, something superfluous was in my head, interfered. I just wanted to lie down, sit down, that’s all. It was like this for about three months, until I got used to it. I just got stupid. For example, I have to go to Severok, but I could go to ChMZ. Then I started writing a list for myself, where to go and what to do in what order, what products to buy at home.
