New lab results
« on: August 21, 2007, 09:57:36 am »
Went to collect new results yesterday (listed in the signature below). Not much change, but the lowest viral load as yet, which I'm VERY pleased with and relieved by. Although it's felt like a very bumpy ride this past year, it's starting to dawn on me that actually results have been pretty stable (I know, I know, this is what everyone have been saying all along).

A couple of months ago I attended a very inspirational lecture by Jon Kaiser and shortly thereafter decided to start the KPAX vitamin supplements. Whether or not the lower viral load is attributable to them is of course impossible to tell. But if nothing else, they've given me a huge boost in energy and I will continue them for a while yet. I guess time will tell if it's really worth the money.

Good numbers.  I'm a bit curious, though, as to what those vitamins contain.

nice results, especially the drop in VL :D

I also would like to hear alittle more about the Kpax. Did they replace your regular one-a-day vitamin regimen?

I'm posting my new results today, and my VL keeps going up and down. ???

Momma, Milker, Betty, Longislander - thanks guy, means a lot...  :D

I should have given a little more background - Jon Kaiser is an HIV doc in SF: http://www.jonkaiser.com - he devised the KPAX combo and gave a lecture a little while ago here in London.

KPAX ain't cheap (I take the double strength version as a replacement for a normal multivit) but supposedly very high quality and backed up with some statistically significant research data: http://www.kpax.us or http://www.kpaxvitamins.co.uk
