New PIP self-test

This is a great tool - however I would take issue with the term AIDS to refer to HIV Infection. AIDS is a very out of date term to describe HIV, and most consultants in the UK refer to "advanced HIV infection" rather than AIDS.

Terminology is important when dealing with HIV, so perhaps you would consider changing AIDS to HIV Infection

Other than that great resource and useful info

Hi C63,

Can you clarify were the term "AIDS" is used rather than HIV?

I wonder if Chris_63 is refering to 'aids' meaning 'appliance', such as glasses of contact lenses to aid sight?

Hi there

It appears in the DLA to PIP Survey results under the physical conditions listing.
