I got my labs back today, a follow up
As some of you know, my immune system took a digger and I caught phenomena twice and was hospitalized twice. Well, I went to have my labs done just to make sure and everything came back a whole lot better!!
My viral load is back to undetectable, my t-cells are back up to 214, and my white blood count is back to normal! I don't have to take anti-biotics anymore because my t-cells are above 200. I am very pleased about that because the bactrim was the only thing I had a co-payment on. Anyway, all good news to go into the week-end with!!

10. It shouldn't be that bad
I guess we are going to have a whole crew painting. So we might get it done in a day!

14. Yep, I bounced right back
Like I said upthread...I guess there are going to be a whole crew of us painting. So assuming that my Uncle brings enough rollers and brushes so everyone can work at the same time, it shouldn't be so bad.

I'm glad to hear the bactrim did its job and you finally kicked that pneumonia.

Cheers to higher CD4 and undetectable VL!

27. Yeah, it's a big relief
I was afraid that I was going to have to switch medicine and that is never fun. You never know what kind of side effects you are going to have with the new meds. At least for now I can take my current meds, (no side effects) and coast for awhile.
