Cd4

A myHIVteam Member asked a question 💭
Abingdon, VA

Usually my cd4 count had been increasing about 20 each doctors visit.
April 9- 29
April 28- 53
July 7- 79
October 2- 109

However, this time (from october 2 - January 10) it only went from 109 to 112

Should i be concerned? This has me stressed out.

Your cd4 will go up and down like your blood pressure. You also want to look at your viral load if your viral load is high there's a little more concern. The other thing is how are you physically feeling. For me personally a positive outlook and faith in God will over come any health issues. I just spent 6 days on a ventilator due to covid in critical condition. The key is a strong support network and positive outlook. You always have us here we are in this together brother

Oh I know Justin my dear ..I had a partner who was on it because he had pneumonia but he stayed on it after the infection was gone to prevent him from further pneumonia and after a while he was taken off. Hugs 😊❤️😊

@A myHIVteam Member, if you follow the European sites, the shot has been out for awhile now. While the "once a month" shot is just coming to the United States, the United States is slow on HIV research as usual. In Europe, they are already on phase 3 of a bimonthly shot research project WITH THE SAME MEDICATION that the United States is coming out with for a monthly shot. Give it another 3 years and the United States will be talking about "the new study on bimonthly injections."
