How Do You Talk Your Doctor In To Giving You A Viral Load Test
@A myHIVteam Member If you tested negative for HIV, did you wait a few days and retake the HIV Test? The symptoms you experience can be a number of other ailments and not necessarily HIV. I suggest you double down on your doctor and have other/more tests done, bloodwork, etc. Even if you have state sponsored medical insurance, your treatment should be no less than people with private medical insurance, be assertive when it comes to YOU and your health. Good Luck!

then you're putting the cart before the horse. You can't have a viral load without a positive test.
Evan I've never had a vital load test done and my doctor want give me one cause I haven't test positive Im having symptoms since last September I don't have a appetite or thirst at all I've lost a lot of muscle mass and weight I went from weighing 263 to 216 now the scale says 240 but I don't look like it my mouth is dry all the time my tongue is white and i have ulcers on my tongue
@A myHIVteam Member where do you live? You should be able to access your blood test results over the internet. It would only refer you to the last blood test you took and any tests prior to the last. Medical insurance could be an issue, my blood tests costs me 95 dollars as my copay fortunately I only need to do it annually.
Once you get access to your blood test records, print it out and learn what's on it.
You probably can't. If your insurance doesn't cover it. Your prolly allowed so many a year for your regular maintenance unless there's a medical reason for them to check. Do you feel there's been a change in your viral load?
