I'm awaiting my HIV test results but over the past few months my body has become covered in white patches that resemble vitiligo.
My GP told me it was a fungal infection but no treatments have cleared it and its just spreading everywhere!
Can anyone tell me if HIV and vitiligo are related??

They arent, I had the same fungal infection. It started on my back and spread throughout my body. It is a build up of yeast in the skin. The cream took care of it. No worries, you are fine.

Most fungal infections take quite some time to clear up. I never had that king of fungus. But I did have toenail fungus. And it took forever to clear up! Gotta be patient I guess and keep doing exactly what the doctor prescribed!

Yes. Lol. Takes a lot of time and you have to apply anti fungal to it faithfully everyday! Or use tea tree oil.
