This is the first time I am hearing of RA. I guess the reason people ask whether is AIDS is because Aids also weakens you immune system. Its really sad that there isn't a cure for it too and one who has it has to suffer for the rest of their life.

I don know that if you have an HIV then you got a Tb then your time is near because HIV will weaken your body’s defense against diseases. TB has a greater opportunity to develop in someone with a compromised immune system and is one of many secondary infections associated with AIDS.
