HIV without medical treatment

Dear Ask The Doctor: Five years of hiv without treatment is this possible to live? could you live with an hiv positive inside your body with in five years without getting any kind of treatment.

Dear Lea:

HIV positive is defined as the presence of human immunodeficiency virus. This virus would damage the immune system progressively; the time would depend on how a particular person would deal with this virus.

Approximately in around ten years without treatment a person would have AIDS which is a chronic, life-threatening condition  is caused by the human immunodeficiency virus and in which the immune system response is minimal and even a simple cold would cause a life threatening condition.
