Hi<\/p>\n
Yes, your CD4 count should definitely have increased by now.<\/p>\n
When did your doctor ask you to come back again?<\/p>\n
In the UK, after starting HIV treatment, the CD4 and viral load is checked after about four weeks.<\/p>\n
If might be different in SA but your nurse, doctor or treatment centre should tell you this.<\/p>\n
I hope everything else is going well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
Hi I tested positive in South Africa and my CD4 was 96 on May. It has now been 4 months taking ARV. Is it possible that my CD4 has risen? Should I go and check if they are higher and up?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7,9,49,39],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-15190","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-all-topics","category-cd4-and-viral-load","category-south-africa","category-starting-treatment"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15190","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=15190"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/15190\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15190"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=15190"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/i-base.info\/qa\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=15190"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
