Tracking retroviral infection

Hello everyone,

I don't have AIDS, but I have long suffered from a retroviral muscle infection, which left me bedridden six years ago, thus forcing me to thoroughly study my illness. One of the results was measurements, the results of which, as I recently realized, should be universal for any retroviral infection.

I want to immediately clarify that I'm not referring to complex cases where several diseases are intertwined, for which such measurements are already commonly used (for example, peripheral arterial disease). I'm referring to AIDS as a single disease.

Below, I describe the eight numbers I suggest anyone interested in the progress of their retroviral infection should measure. Measurements can be taken either carefully using a specialized device or roughly using readily available contact measuring devices.

This is:
- systolic blood pressure in the left and right human calves,
- systolic blood pressure in the left and right biceps,
- skin temperature of the left and right human calves,
- skin temperature of the left and right biceps.

I think each of you is educated enough to understand these numbers independently. But if you need my commentary, please post these numbers in response to my post, along with two more: your age at the time of (presumed) HIV infection and your age at the time the above numbers were measured.
