Question
Is massage safe if you are HIV-positive?

I have been diagnosed as HIV-positive and a friend of mine has been diagnosed with breast cancer. We have just found out that they advise against massage for 6months after the treatment of any cancer because of stimulating the lymph nodes. Would this be the same for HIV?
