Is there a type of HIV that doesn't lead to death?

Asked by Loried2008 (1998points) February 3rd, 2011

I was just told that I’m HIV positive, but that I have no side affects. The nurse that called said that sometimes people have it and nothing ever shows signs of it. She never said anything about it being life threatening and that my husband was likely the carrier of it. Is this possible or do all types of HIV lead to death eventually?
