A case of a 45-year-old HIV-infected male who developed a severe throat infection with serious complications is reported. Despite a low CD4 count, the patient suffered only one significant illness in ten years since his diagnosed HIV infection. Overly aggressive antibiotic therapy caused fungal and thrush infections, leading to dehydration and extreme weight loss. The patient was treated with rehydration therapy, antifungal agents, and TMP-SMX, after which other complications, including multiple infections and B-cell lymphoma, were diagnosed. He refused chemotherapy after one course of treatment and was sent home with hospice care.
