Half of the deaths in people with HIV now are from causes other than AIDS, according to a study presented at the 16th Conference on Retroviruses and Opportunistic Infections (CROI) in Montreal. Non-AIDS-related cancers and cardiovascular disease are a growing cause of death particularly in older people with HIV. - via POZ magazine on-line.
As I have said before, it seems I can expect to die from my family's rich and proud tradition of cardiovascular disease, just as it was meant to be. And if I don't get my cholesterol numbers down that could be sooner than I may want.
Had a job interview yesterday and another today and at least one more later this week. That's encouraging. I guess.
