Hi Tony177. First, I live in Midtown Atlanta. Greetings! Secondly, regarding your question about meds and supplements, I had a similar issue with t-cells and viral load. I used to take meds and supplements all at once. My infectious disease doc said that's a "no no". Take meds and supplements separately...which I now do. My bloodwork and HIV results are more normal for several years now. Take care.

@A myHIVteam Member Keep separated your dosing times for HIV meds and your supplements. It'll absorb better and not interfere with the HIV meds effectiveness.

It also could be due to stress you may have been dealing with
