For someone to request for HIV test for both of you means she/he is not only taking both of your lives seriously but is wise,and this would boost up my trust in him/her. I would ofcause appreciate my privacy and do it by myself first and then later on I can gain the confidence to do it together. Go for it buddy,there is nothing as good as knowing your status.

LIFE IS FOR THE LIVING,DEAD MEN TELL NO TALE.

I think getting tested is the best option…No doubt about it. When my husband and I first met,we went together and got tested before anything else….I’m talking first week of meeting. And we went back together to pick up the results.

I find it interesting some of the responses that I’m reading here. It’s amazing the stigma that is still associated with HIV in Kenya. I live in the west now and getting tested has become almost part of a regular doctor’s visit. The HIV percentage continues to rise but because many know their status,they are able to manage and lead almost normal lives.

I get tested at least twice a year. Of course the period between taking the test and getting the results is always filled with lots of prayers and many questions run through my head but it gives me peace of mind to know what my status is.

Now that you agree that getting tested is the best option,I would say just pray and pray really hard and hope for the best. Whatever your status is,it will help you know how to handle your future. Good luck and hope it works out well for you

I first carried HIV -TEST mid this year when a group of trainers/Counselors came to our Orgn.to offer talk to employees.I have never ever,the reason was just that i fear injection.So this was an opportunity that i couldnt let go.It was hard but atleast i got a nother lady who was also a coward like me & we encouraged.Can u imagin that only the two of us were tested.The rest just couldnt imagin knowing their status.How i wish these pple come up with another way that they do not have to inject anyone............hmmmmm.Coz of that i will not do it again till the day i will be crossing over since it will be a must,as in in our Church.

But those who have know problem with injection,i would encourage you to be tested always and know your health status.Mostly when you have a partner,you might not know what do happens behind the scenes.It is bad to invest in stocks ar carryout all manner of investments so as to become rich but you do not invest in your health.

@Liv

How much does it cost to do a full medical check up??? I think this is a way to go.I hope the do not have to inject anyone.....Hii mambo ya cindano ni stress.Most of the time we have heard of pple collapsing and being promoted to glory just like that.This is because there was something eating then silently from within.So we should not just carry out HIV TEST but one should go for a full medical test once a while.

ZZE,did u finally overcome ua fear?

and it came to pass

God is great….. Just came back from the VCT @ ICC msa rd….they have an excellent counselor….. driving there was easy - all I did was say a prayer,but walking from the car to the VCT office was impossible,I did not know my body could shake that much….. then the 15min wait for the result is worse…. Staring at the strips….sweat was flowing….

Now am off to take some summit to cool dem nerves…. and thanks all SKerians for the support..
