@A myHIVteam Member thanks for that information. My doctor put me on Biktarvy.
My doctor recommended I never do labs in the AM to measure my CD4 counts when possible. This is because CD4 counts naturally drop overnight and the same is true for uninfected persons. Having labs later in the day or as late as your lab is open will show a rise in CD4 counts and this will show you your truer CD4 count. I also switched my two-pill (twice a day) regime to Genvoya which I only take once a day now. Plus, Genvoya is developed to do less damage to kidneys and bones over time than other meds which cause problems down the road.
here is something to read. This would help CD4 counts, not sure how much they would increase though.
