This is especially common is you are\u00a0HIV positive.<\/p>\n<p>The good news is that HIV meds (ARVs) dramatically extend your life.\u00a0Are you currently taking ARVs? If you are, when did you begin?<\/p>\n<p>Unless you have other serious complications, no doctor can say how long anyone will live.<\/p>\n<p>A CD4 count of 172 is still good enough to protect you from lots of HIV-related problems.\u00a0\u00a0If you are on meds then the CD4 count should also get steadily higher.<\/p>\n<p>There is a lot about life expectancy on the i-Base website.
