Title: UNDETECTABLE!!!! <3
Post by: hivtalian on August 01, 2014, 03:29:24 pm
guys...just to share my joy about the latest news I had...

Last wed I had a blood sample because of a slight increase in VL gone from 59 to 93 (and subsequent anxiety...:/ ) after having reduced my therapy from truvada norvir prezista isentress to just truvada isentress...

And my doctor just called me to say..."hey, where did u say you wanted to go on holiday?..." well I said with my heart beating..."ehm...sardinia and mykonos then".... and she "well, just to say you can go lightminded cause you're undetectable!!".

I love her.

And I'm so happy!!! After 7 months...
Just wanted to share.

And say thank you to all of you that helped me in this first hard phase...especially Ann, Buginme and yes, Mecch:)
Keep going now!!
Happy holidays to everyone!!!

anxiety?!? Did you know that just a few years ago anything under 500 was considered undetectable? Besides 59 to 93 is not statistically relevant.

congrats though on hitting UD  ;)
