Has Anyone Ever Took A Macronutrient And/or A Micronutrient Test?
A myHIVteam Member asked a question 💭

HIV can diminish our vitamins and minerals from our body. OTHER THAN what your regular labs are, have you been tested to see what vitamins and minerals you are lacking through a macronutrient test and a micronutrient test? I have been thinking of getting these 2 test done, but insurance will not pay for them. I guess it runs around $300 to $400 to have it done.
So has anybody ever did these 2 test?

What Medicine Do You Take?
A myHIVteam Member asked a question 💭

I have no idea why or how but according to my viral load test my VL went from undetectable to 93. I have never missed my biktarvy. None of it makes sense.

My doctor mentioned possibly switching from biktarvy to something else to see if another medication would “jump start” my cd4. Now she may really want to since my VL is increasing.
