Covid Vaccination And HIV Lab Results:
A myHIVteam Member asked a question 💭

I completed my Pfizer series of the Co-vid vaccine about three weeks ago. Wondering if anyone has been fully vaccinated and had any labs done since and had any major variations in their results. May be to early but I am anxious to see how my HIV numbers are as well as my CBC and Renal panel. I am glad I made the decision to go forward with the vaccine. Figured the benefits outweigh the risks. Hope everyone will get one! It will be great to have things back to normal hopefully this year… read more

A myHIVteam Member asked a question 💭

my partner and I broke up in the 90's and I haven't had a real partner since then. I long for someone to connect with but nowadays am happy with good friends and no sex.

Dropping CD4 Numbers
A myHIVteam Member asked a question 💭

Over the last year my CD4 has dropped from well over 1000 and my percentages at 50% to CD4 of 496 with the percentages remaining the same. I was diagnosed 20 years ago with a CD4 of zero and my VL in the millions. My physician seems unconcerned and actually dismissed my concern when asked about the drop in CD4. Should I NOT be concerned? Or do I have cause for worry!
