Answer

Thanks for getting in touch.

How are you coping with your diagnoses? Are you able to get any support?

Your CD4  count is good and will increase over time. Your viral load will also drop with the treatment that you’re on.

People who start treatment with a high CD4 count can expect to have a similar life expectancy to people who aren’t positive. More answers on life expectancy are at this link:
