I can understand that you are puzzled by the slight increase in your CD4 count, even though you have not started your treatment.<\/p>\n
It is normal for CD4 counts to fluctuate.\u00a0 The fluctuation could be a result of many things such as the time of the day, exercise, how tired or stress you are and whether you have other infections like a cold or the flu.<\/p>\n
