Is it true that AIDS sufferers cannot have allergies as they are the
opposite ends of the immunity scale?
Im having a debate about this. I asked on the Allergy NG, but no one
answered

I've often wondered about this myself--hope someone in the know weighs
in on this topic--it's a good question.--r3

Due to their frequent treatment with antibioitcs, AIDS sufferers in the
U.S. have many allergies and sensitivities to chemicals, as well as
allergic dermatitis, chronic sinusitis and asthma/bronchitis.  not at
all true that they are the opposite end of immunity scale.  A good
source of info about AIDS (like if you are worried you may have it
because you are sick all the time) is www.thebody.com.
