You may not always feel sick, but as Dr. Demetre points out, that's no excuse to forgo your HIV treatment.

Even if you’re not “feeling” sick, it is always a good idea to treat your HIV, experts say.

As stressed by Dr. Demetre in the latest installment of the web series #AskTheHIVDoc, “it’s not always about how you feel,” especially when you consider what could happen if you ignore your HIV treatment.

“We know for a fact that treating HIV prevents AIDS,” he says. “We also know that treating HIV prevents the complications of AIDS — which can be really devastating, and ultimately HIV meds save lives.”

Watch Dr. Demetre make the argument for never ignoring your treatment in the newest #AskTheHIVDoc episode below.

#AskTheHIVDoc is a YouTube series created by the Greater Than AIDS organization to help gay men learn more about HIV and sexual health through honest, fun, and no-nonsense discussions. For more information, visit greaterthan.org/speakout.
