Hi, i want to know is it okay not to worry about my viral load when its 180 but my CD4 count is 477.
Answer
Hi
Your results look very good but I need to know whether or not you are on treatment.
Either way the results are good.
If you are on treatment though, e very careful with taking all your meds as prescribed, as this might help your viral load go even lower. This would be a good thing.
just be very particular on taking ART medicine religiously and 100 percent ON-TIME regularly,everyday.Do a little bit of exercise and above all live a total stress free life.If you have not been on treatment I guess you need to start one to keep the viral load below detectable count.
Viral load below 40 and Absolute CD4 count hovering over 500 is perfect.
