Behemoth's Nergal Feared He Had HIV
. (TeamRock Radio) Behemoth frontman Nergal stopped himself from crying after being told he had cancer until his doctor had left the room. And the news came after he'd feared he was suffering from tuberculosis or even HIV. Adam Darski was rushed to hospital in 2010, forcing the cancellation of two tours. Two weeks later he was diagnosed with leukaemia, and underwent a bone marrow transplant. He confirmed he was returning to health the following year. In his book Confessions Of A Heretic, to be published in English on March 19, Nergal says: "Tuberculosis was first on the list. I thought that wasn't the worst possible scenario. Then it got worse - the doctors said it could also be lymphangioma or HIV. "When I saw these last three letters I felt weak. Suddenly, flashing before my eyes like a twisted highlight reel, were all the sexual encounters of the last few years. There were quite a few, but as far as I could remember I was always careful. "There was only one thought in my head: 'Be anything, but not HIV.'" A doctor finally told him and his then-fiancees Dorota that he had cancer of the blood system. Read more here.
